Bunium Persicum originates from Central Asia and Northern India. Although often confused with Nigella Sativa (black cumin), it is a distinct species. The seeds of Bunium Persicum are dark brown and crescent-shaped. They are commonly used as a spice in Indian, Asian, and Middle Eastern cuisine, where they can be substituted for cumin or used in various dishes such as baked breads, curries, or steamed rice.

Kala Jeera cumin is a popular choice that can be costly to buy, making it an attractive option for home cultivation. This variety is relatively easy to grow and adaptable to different soil types, including sandy or clay-based soils, as well as containers. The plants have a pleasant fragrance and can attract birds, bees, and butterflies to your garden.
