What is Shahjeera (Wild Black Cumin)?

Known scientifically as Carum carvi, Shahjeera is a dark brown to black seed with a ridged texture and a distinctive flowery, smoky aroma. It’s referred to by various regional names including:

• Shahjeera or Shahi Jeera (Hindi/Urdu)

• Kalajeera (Bengali)

• Karuva (Tamil)

• Kara jeera (Gujarati)

• Kala Jeera (Punjabi)

• Kali Jeeri (Marathi)

Unlike regular cumin, Shahjeera has a milder, sweeter flavor with a complex nutty undertone, making it an essential ingredient in aromatic spice blends such as garam masala.
