1. Product Overview
Cumin Powder (Cuminum cyminum), commonly known as Jeera Powder, is a quintessential spice prized for its warm, earthy, and slightly peppery flavor. It is made by finely grinding dried cumin seeds and is used extensively in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Latin American cuisines. Roasted cumin powder, which is dry-roasted before grinding, carries a more intense, smoky aroma and is particularly favored in Indian culinary traditions.
At AccelTrade Exports, a reputed exporter from Gujarat, India, we offer both regular and roasted cumin powders, ground from high-quality seeds. Our products are hygienically processed, free from artificial color or preservatives, and rich in natural essential oil content for maximum aroma and shelf life.
