Green Cardamom Pods

Green Cardamom Pods have a complex, slightly sweet, and floral flavor with citrus undertones. Cardamom intensifies both savory and sweet flavors and is a key ingredient in many spice blends. Cardamom is very popular in African, Arab, Asian, Indian and Scandinavian cuisines. Cardamom adds to the flavor of rice, sauces, soups, stews, breads, pastries and enhances chicken, meats, seafood and vegetables. In some cultures a show of welcoming hospitality, visitors may be offered a cup of coffee flavored with cardamom and cream.
