Ajwain

Ajwain, also known as "bishop's weed" or "carom", is a herb in the Apiaceae family. It has seed like fruits with a bitter and pungent taste (the term "carom seeds" is a misnomer, it is more accurately "carom fruit"). It is cultivated mainly in India and Iran, with Rajasthan being a major producer. It is used in Ayurveda for stomach disorders.
