Fox’s Spices Caraway Seeds 650g

Caraway Seeds

Fox’s Spices Caraway Seeds 650g offers a generous supply of whole aromatic seeds with a warm, earthy flavour. Caraway has a distinctive taste that many people describe as a mix of mild anise, pepper and citrus, with a gentle bitterness that works very well in rich and hearty dishes. The seeds are small, curved and slightly ridged, adding both flavour and a light crunch to bread, savoury bakes and vegetable dishes. Whole caraway seeds are a classic choice in rye bread, sauerkraut and Eastern European style stews, but they are also useful in modern recipes where you want a subtle, grown up savoury note. Because these are whole seeds, you can use them as they are or lightly crush them to release more aroma, making this 650g tub a practical option for anyone who likes to keep versatile pantry spices on hand.

Key Features:

• Whole caraway seeds keep their aroma well and can be toasted or crushed to adjust the strength and style of flavour in each dish.

Recipe Inspiration:

• Add caraway seeds to braised cabbage, sauerkraut, goulash or other slow cooked stews to give a gentle background spice that balances richness.
• Stir a pinch of caraway into savoury scones, cheese biscuits or soda bread for a light aniseed note that works well on sharing boards and with soups.

What are caraway seeds used for?

Caraway seeds are used to flavour breads, savoury biscuits, cabbage dishes, soups, stews and pickles, as well as some traditional cakes and biscuits. They are especially popular in European style recipes, where their warming, slightly aniseed flavour helps cut through rich meats and creamy sauces.

What do caraway seeds taste like?

Caraway seeds have a distinctive flavour that is warm and earthy with gentle hints of anise, lemon and pepper. The taste is quite individual but not harsh, which is why whole caraway seeds are often used in recipes where you want a noticeable yet balanced spice that does not drown out other ingredients.

Is caraway the same as cumin?

Caraway and cumin are different spices from different plants, although the seeds can look similar at a glance. Caraway has a more herbal, aniseed note, while cumin tastes earthier and more savoury. In some recipes you can swap one for the other in small amounts, but the flavour will change, so it is worth choosing caraway seeds when a recipe specifically calls for them.
