Heray Spice's Afghanistan Wild Caraway Seeds grow from the Caraway plant on the pristine lands of Herat, Afghanistan. The caraway plant’s flowers produce the seed pods, and after they're dried, they are cut and harvested. The local methods of hand-harvesting and sun-drying give these seeds a robust in flavor and smell. They boast tasting notes of licorice, radish, and mint. Caraway is one of the ancient spices that has grown for thousands of years in Afghanistan.

Incorporate them into cakes, like a lemon pound cake or Irish Soda Bread. Use them in savory dishes, like on grilled vegetables, in hummus, or in potato pancakes.
