You will love our Green Cardamom Pods Here's why:

Botanical Name: Elettaria cardamomum (commonly known as green or true cardamom, is a herbaceous, perennial plant in the ginger family)

Green Cardamom is native to the forest of South India, where it grows wild. Second only to the spice saffron in value, cardamom is one of the worlds most expensive spice. Cardamom can enhance both sweet and savory dishes. It has been important in Indian cuisine for thousands of years, being a useful ingredient in sumptuous curries to adding a camphoric flavor to Indian masala chai. Its also a key ingredient in many ayurvedic medicines and herbal mixes.

 

How do I use Green Cardamom? Our favorite recipe is Cardamom Milk Coffee

In most recipes, just a few pods are required. Its typically used to infuse flavor into the dish its going into rather being consumed whole.

How to Make it:

 

• Step 1 : Simmer cardamom pods and milk in a small saucepan over medium-low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.


• Step 2: Heat 2/3 cup water almost to boiling. Put ground coffee in a drip cone set on a large mug. Pour water over grounds.


• Step 3: Strain milk into coffee. Stir in sugar if you like.
