Did you know? Although commonly referred to as “black cumin”, Nigella sativa is not related to true cumin (Cuminum cyminum) but instead belongs to the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae)—a group more often associated with ornamental flowers than culinary spices. Its appearance is equally distinctive, featuring delicate pale-blue flowers and unusually large, inflated seed capsules that split open to release tiny, angular black seeds. This striking combination of misleading name and unique botanical structure makes the plant both scientifically intriguing and visually appealing.
