Carom Seeds

Introduce a bold, warming thyme-like intensity to your savory product lines with premium Carom Seeds, also known as Ajwain, a highly potent spice famous for its sharp aroma and exceptional digestive properties. Sourced from the small oval fruits of the Trachyspermum ammi plant, our carom seeds go through careful cleaning and mechanical sorting to deliver uniform, debris-free seeds with high thymol oil concentration. At Aba Impex, we select and supply premium ajwain that offers an immediate, stimulating bite, featuring a complex flavor profile of sharp heat, subtle bitterness, and clear thyme notes. Widely used across traditional Indian baking, savory snacks, and oil-tempered bean dishes, carom seeds add a wonderful savory depth that cuts through rich, starchy, or fried foods. Beyond cooking, ajwain is heavily utilized in wellness formulations due to its reliable ability to ease stomach discomfort.
