One of the most popular herbs today, caraway has long been prized for the excellence of its aromatic dried seeds as a condiment, added to bread & cheeses and an aid to digestion.  A hardy, biennial herb native to Europe and Western Asia growing 1 ½ ft  with attractive feathery leaves and white flowers from mid summer on the end of branches resembling carrot flowers. In the first year plants resemble carrots, growing to about 8 inches tall with finely divided leaves and long taproots, maturing and flowering in the second season.  The entire caraway plant is edible. The roots may be boiled and treated like cooked parsnips or carrots. The young leaves can be used in salads or for seasoning soups and stews. The licorice flavored seeds give ryebread its characteristic taste but are also good in potato soup, cheese spreads, sauerkraut and salad dressings. Several liqueurs are made with caraway, including Kummel and some Schnapps.
