Cumin seeds, derived from the plant Nigella sativa, also known as fennel flower, nutmeg flower, or Roman coriander, are used to produce cumin seed oil. The oil is extracted through steam distillation or cold pressing at low temperatures. The cumin plant grows to about 12 inches in height, with deep green, narrow, thread-like leaves and small white or pink flowers, which later turn into fruit that contains the seeds.
