Etymology

Uses

Ajwain is often confused with lovage seed; even some dictionaries mistakenly state that ajwain comes from the lovage plant. Ajwain is also called 'owa' in Marathi, "vaamu" or Oma in Telugu,

Omam (Ajwain) is used to make a special food called the 'omapodi'. It is also mixed in several snacks of north and south India.

It reduces flatulence caused by beans when it is cooked with beans. It may be used as a substitute for cumin as well.

Flavour and aroma

In Indian cuisine, ajwain is almost never used raw, but either dry-roasted or fried in ghee or oil. This develops a much more subtle and complex aroma, somewhat similar to caraway but "brighter". Among other things, it is used for making a type of paratha, called 'ajwain ka paratha'.
