  Hi Aravind,

  LS: correct if I am wrong.

  Dear LS,
  Could you tell me what "sauf" is? Could it be aniseed?

  Hi Verna,
  If I am right, "sauf" is fennel seeds. aniseeds is called ajwain in hindi.

  Hello CL!
  Fennel seeds and aniseeds are the same and they are called as 'sounf' in Hindi. Ajwain is another small [jeera-like] spice which is called as 'carom seeds' in English!
