Its seeds have a slight onion taste, and when broken down, the smell is somewhat reminiscent of pepper and pitch. It is primarily used in Arabic, Turkish and Indian cuisine.

Diseases of the respiratory system, stomach, kidney, and liver were treated with it, it was used to strengthen the circulation and immune system, and also as an anti-inflammatory, anesthetic, and anti-allergen. Islam considers it among the most effective healing preparations.
