Caraway is a unique spice long used in cooking and herbal medicine. It is highly aromatic and has a distinctive mild anise flavor that adds a welcome and subtle licorice hint to many dishes. The taste is earthy, with a hint of citrus and pepper. Caraway seeds are also used in flavoring curries, soups, sausages, vegetables, and even liqueurs. Caraway is a rich source of vitamins and minerals. However, the same aspects that make caraway so potent can also create health complications for people with certain medical conditions.
