Caraway (Carum carvi)
Caraway is commonly grown for its thin, crescent-shaped seeds, but the entire plant—leaves, stems, seeds, and roots—are edible. Caraway is a biennial plant that produces carrot-like leaves one year and flower heads and seeds the next. Caraway leaves and seeds have an earthy flavour with a hint of citrus and pepper.
