What makes this recipe extra delicious is the caraway seeds. The seeds are aromatic and have a strong flavor that is accompanied by mild earthy and nutty notes.
The seeds are one of the dominant spices featured in several savory dishes of traditional European cuisine.

The caraway is a member of the Umbelliferae family, which includes other herbs like parsley, dill, anise, fennel and cumin.
