Cumin, the seeds of the Cuminum cyminum plants, originates from South Western Asia and the Middle East. Dried and utilized in both culinary and non-culinary applications, India holds the leading position as both producer and consumer of Cumin. Beyond its seed form, it is also employed in powdered form and as essential oils. The plant thrives in temperatures ranging from 25-30 degrees Celsius and a Mediterranean climate.

With its roots believed to trace back to the Eastern Mediterranean, Cumin has been a spice for over a millennium. During the Egyptian civilization, it played a role not only in cuisine but also in mummification as a preservative. Progressing through time, Cumin became a significant component in Roman cuisine and later journeyed to the Americas with Spanish and Portuguese colonists. Presently, major Cumin producers include India, China, Northern Africa, Chile, and Mexico.
