Ah Cumin. Cumin is that spice, you know, the one that is almost everywhere? It's used pretty ubiquitously across the subcontinent, from the southern tip of India, all the way north, and well into Central Asia. It goes to the east into China, and in the other direction across the Mediterranean and the Middle East. We also see it in North and East Africa, and then over the oceans into Mexico. Later in history, we see cumin show up in the Southern United States. This month Keith prepares an Afghan dish to celebrate this beautiful spice that is incredibly versatile. You can't imagine hummus, dal, garam masala, foul medammes, tacos or chilli without cumin. Grab your cup of tea, and maybe a cumin biscuit to go with it, and settle in for more than masala.
