Ajwain, also known as carom seeds or oomam, is a pungent, Indian seed-like fruit with a bitter taste, similar to that of anise or oregano. They smell almost identical to thyme but even more aromatic. The fruit is commonly dry-roasted and crushed before using and rarely eaten raw.
Active enzymes in ajwain improve the flow of stomach acids, which can help to relieve indigestion, bloating, and gas. The plant can also help to treat peptic ulcers as well as sores in the esophagus, stomach, and intestines.
