What the AI looks for in Caraway Seed

Whole seed
Buy whole. Caraway is almost always used whole or freshly cracked. Ground caraway is rarely called for and stales fast.
Freshness
Seeds should be brown with pale ridges and smell strongly when crushed. The carvone aroma is what defines caraway's flavor.
Not cumin
Check the label carefully. In some languages caraway and cumin share similar names. The two look similar but taste very different.
