Caraway

Carum carvi

Dark, curved seeds with a bracing earthy bite — the signature flavor of rye bread, sauerkraut, and Eastern European cooking.

Murraya koenigii

Glossy, fragrant leaves from a small South Indian tree — utterly different from "curry powder," and the soul of Sri Lankan and South Indian tempering.

Poppy Seed

Papaver somniferum

The tiny slate-blue (or pale white) seed of the opium poppy — used in baked goods worldwide and as a thickener in Indian curries.
