McCormick Dill Seed, 0.85 oz

Dill seed is the fruit of the dill plant, from which we also get the herb, dill weed, which are the feathery leaves. More aromatic than the herb, the seeds are used whole or crushed to add bright, lemony flavor to pickles, savory pork and seafood recipes, and salads. At McCormick our whole dill seeds are hand-picked for robust, tart flavor. Popular in Scandinavian & Eastern European cooking, its caraway-like taste enhances bread, potato and noodle dishes, as well as soups and stews. An ingredient in pickling spices, dill the defining flavor in pickles and can be used to prepare other pickled vegetables, relishes and sauerkraut. The seed also appears in Indian dals and curries where it is dry toasted or warmed in oil to release its aroma.
