The delicious smoked flavor of black cardamom is popular among vegetarian, Kosher, and Halal cooks as it can be reminiscent of bacon’s own smokey flavor. Black cardamom is most often used in Indian recipes but it lends itself well to other cuisines. Try adding a crushed pod to a pot of Vietnames pho stock or Chinese braised beef recipes. You can also remove the seeds from the hull, grind them into a powder, and add it to your favorite curry or masala recipes. We recommend lightly toasting the cardamom pod in a dry pan before use to amplify its flavor and aroma. Ingredients: Black cardamom.

Black cardamom is a small herb with strong aromatic fragrances and can be availed in two varieties – ‘black cardamom’ and ‘green cardamom’.
Flavorful Black Cardamom, Distinct from green cardamom, black pods have a deep, smoky flavor with notes of cinnamon and clove that are best extracted through long stewing. Long cook times release complex flavor and oils, enlivening curry or stew.
Versatile Spice, Black cardamom can be used as a whole spice, slightly crushed, powdered, or seeded and then used as crushed seeds. It is a popular ingredient with Indian spices and pairs well with cumin, mustard, bay leaves and dry chili peppers.
