Caraway ground from Maiergut

Good to Know: Homegrown on the "Maiergut" Estate - In 2021, we breathed new life into the "Maiergut" estate in the Innviertel region of Upper Austria. We currently cultivate coriander and caraway on the 14-hectare site. This represents another step towards sustainability and also puts the promotion of local agriculture and production in the spotlight. Uses: Caraway, with its strong, distinctive flavor, is also ideal for seasoning (fatty) meat dishes such as roast goose, pork, or lamb, goulash, and braised dishes. It is also excellent for flavoring sauces, soups, vegetables, cheese, and salads, as well as bread, cakes, and pastries. No matter what you use it for, you'll find it whole or ground here so you can use it optimally in your dishes. Taste: Maiergut caraway is particularly aromatic and of outstanding quality. Production: The plant has an upright stem that can grow up to 60 cm tall. The leaves are finely pinnate and the flowers are arranged in umbels. Caraway is primarily cultivated for its seeds, which have an aromatic and spicy flavor with a distinctive aroma. Harvesting takes place when the seeds are ripe and have turned brownish. The seeds are harvested either by hand or with special harvesting machines. After harvesting, the seeds are dried and cleaned to remove dirt and impurities. They are then filled directly into the S! tin.
