What is the shelf life for caraway seeds?

Caraway seeds typically have a shelf life of about 2 to 3 years when stored properly in a cool, dark, and dry place. Over time, they may lose their potency and flavor, but they generally remain safe to consume beyond this period if there are no signs of spoilage. For the best quality, it's advisable to check for aroma and flavor before use. Properly sealed containers can help extend their freshness.
