Green Cardamon Pods 50g

Green cardamom, also known as true cardamom, is a highly aromatic spice commonly used in both sweet and savoury dishes. It has a unique and complex flavour profile that is floral, citrusy, and slightly spicy. Commonly used in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Scandinavian cooking.

Green cardamons have several uses and can be incorporated into a variety of recipes:

  1. Baking: Green cardamom adds a delightful flavour to baked goods such as cakes, cookies, and bread. You can crush the cardamom pods and add the seeds to your dough or batter. It pairs well with flavors like vanilla, almond, and citrus.
  2. Chai Tea: Green cardamom is an essential ingredient in traditional Indian chai tea. It provides a warm and aromatic note to the tea. Crush a few cardamom pods and add them to your tea while it’s steeping for a deliciously fragrant beverage.
  3. Curries and Rice Dishes: Green cardamom is commonly used in Indian and Middle Eastern cuisines to flavour curries, rice dishes, and biryanis. Add whole cardamom pods while cooking to infuse the dish with its fragrance. Remember to remove the pods before serving.
  4. Desserts and Sweet Treats: Green cardamom is a fantastic spice for enhancing the flavours of desserts. You can add it to puddings, custards, ice creams, and fruit salads. It works particularly well with flavors like cinnamon, saffron, and rosewater.
  5. Infused Beverages: Crushed green cardamom pods can be steeped in hot water to create a refreshing and aromatic infused drink. You can sweeten it with honey or sugar and serve it hot or over ice.
  6. Spiced Coffee: Add a pinch of ground green cardamom to your coffee grounds before brewing for a unique and aromatic twist to your morning cup of joe.
