About Shahi Jeera

Shahi Jeera is a premium aromatic spice commonly used in traditional Indian and Mughlai cooking. It looks similar to regular jeera but is thinner, darker, and more delicate in shape. The flavor of Shahi Jeera is mildly sweet with gentle earthy notes, making it suitable for rich and slow cooked dishes. It is widely used in biryanis, pulao, kormas, and festive rice preparations where aroma matters more than sharp spice. When lightly roasted or added to hot ghee, Shahi Jeera releases a soft fragrance that blends smoothly with other ingredients. Its refined taste enhances dishes without overpowering gravies or spices, making it a preferred choice for elegant recipes.
