East End Cumin (Jeera) Whole – 8x700g

Description

Bulk whole cumin seed for kitchens that get through jeera fast.

Cumin, or jeera, is one of the most used spices in South Asian cooking, and this is the whole seed from East End Foods in Birmingham. The pack format is 8x700g, which means eight 700g bags in a case, giving a generous 5.6kg of cumin in total. That volume suits caterers, takeaways and large households, while whole seeds keep the warm, earthy aroma that ground cumin loses on the shelf.

Key Features

• Eight 700g bags per case, about 5.6kg, a genuine bulk format that keeps a busy kitchen stocked and lowers the cost per portion.
• Whole seeds hold their aroma longer than ground cumin, so flavour stays strong through a large pack.
• Deep, warm and slightly nutty, cumin is the classic first spice into hot tempering oil.
• Works across dals, curries, rice dishes, spice mixes and breads, earning its place on any prep list.
• A trusted East End line that caterers can reorder with confidence.

Cooking and Uses: Cumin is made for tempering. Drop the whole seeds into hot oil or ghee and let them sizzle and darken slightly before you add onions or vegetables. Toast and grind for fresh cumin powder, or blend into garam masala and curry mixes.

Storage

Keep in a cool, dry place away from light and moisture. With a large pack, decant working amounts into an airtight container and keep the rest sealed.
