History
The history of the caraway seed is a bit muddled, due to its similarities to so many other plants and herbs. In the Middle East, for example, it was often misidentified as cumin and in Mediterranean regions it was commonly called fennel.
These mix-ups, from a culinary standpoint, didn't really matter since all the flavors are quite similar. However, it makes the exact usage and historical account of the spices popularity difficult to follow.
The spice has been widely popular in Europe for centuries where it gained particular fame as an addition to cabbage and pork dishes such as sauerkraut and sausage.
