Plural form of caraway; seeds from the caraway plant used as a spice, commonly found in rye bread, sauerkraut, and liqueurs.
From Arabic 'karawya,' borrowed into European languages from the Middle East where the plant originated. The plural simply adds '-s' to the singular 'caraway.'
Caraway seeds have been used in cooking for over 5,000 years—ancient Egyptians used them in burials, medieval Europeans added them to bread, and they're still today one of the world's most important spice crops.
