Caraway is an ancient aromatic herb, famous for being the spice in rye bread and German sauerkraut. A biennial in the carrot family that grows 1'-3' tall, with feathery foliage and tiny white flowers. The seeds, which have an earthy-citrusy-peppery flavor, are the most used, but the flowers, leaves, stems, and root (which looks like a small parsnip, and can be used like any other root vegetable) are also edible. While you’re waiting for the flowers, seeds, and roots to develop in the second year, spend the first year using the leaves, which have a parsley-dill flavor, in salads, soups, and sautés.

  • Parsley-dill flavor
  • All parts are edible
  • Culinary and medicinal uses
  • Good for containers


As a companion plant, it attracts pollinators and beneficial insects, and repels aphids, cabbage moths, cabbage white butterfly, cabbage worms, carrot root fly, and caterpillars.

As a medicinal herb, Caraway has been used internally to treat asthma, bad breath, bloating, colds, colic, cough, flatulence, heartburn, indigestion, insomnia, lack of appetite, nausea, sore throat, and stomach cramps, and externally to treat arthritis, bruises, burns, skin irritation, toothache, and wounds.

    What is Caraway?

    Caraway is a biennial. This means it takes two years for the plant to mature, produce seeds, then die. During the winter you may not see any evidence of the plant even though the roots are preparing for spring. So mark your spot carefully so you don’t accidentally dig them up in the spring.

    An interesting legend that goes along with Caraway is that it had the power to prevent the theft of objects that had seeds nearby and it also kept lovers from losing interest in one another.  Still, some believe Caraway has beneficial healing powers and you can use the oil, fruit and seeds as medicine.




    Health Benefits of Caraway

    Women can use Caraway oil to relieve menstral cramps. Feeling bloated or have a bit of indigestion? Chewing on a few Caraway seeds can help relieve your symptoms!

     




    Ways to Consume Caraway

    If you want to consume the leaves, pick them when they are young and tender. The roots are also edible when the plant is young.  Use Caraway seeds in baked goods, such as breads, and buns.  Add them to vegetable and fruit dishes, especially curries.  Use leaves and seeds alike to make hot and cold teas.

    Caraway seeds have a sharp, pungent, slightly licorice taste that’s is delicious with green beans, potatoes, cabbage, onions, brussels sprouts, tomatoes, and apples. Try mixing it with cucumber and sour cream. It’s delicious with sausage and beef.

      This is a great gift for our dog, but thank goodness she doesn't read.
      Size: Newspaper 4 PCS
      My puppy loves toys with crackling noises and I purchased these crackling papers. These are well sewn together, double sided and I have not had any problem with these tearing or shredding by her sharp baby teeth. On looking at the "paper" it seems to have articles for a mother of a human baby. The articles have many misspellings and are funny because of that. Since my puppy doesn't have dyslexia, she doesn't seem to notice the errors and enjoys playing with these and dragging them around our home.

      Must supervise use
      Size: Newspaper 4 PCS
      Perfect concept for my puppy golden doodle who loves getting into paper and paper towels. He was obsessed with it when i gave it to him. However 2 minutes later i had to take it from him because he ate through the sheet like nothing. You have to supervise this toy with your baby. Good thing they give you 4! You’ll get about 8 minutes out of this toy. Cute for a party or something though.
