List of 3-syllable Spices that start with C

1

Caraway

Carum carvi

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

2

Chipotle

Capsicum annuum

A jalapeño pepper smoke-dried for hours over mesquite — bringing leathery sweetness and a campfire bass note to Mexican adobos and rubs.

3

Curry Leaf

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.
