A Cardamom pods history:

Cardamom pods (Green ), a fruit native to India and Papua New Guinea, have been used in sweet and savory dishes across India, Asia, Northern Africa, and the Middle East for thousands of years. The Vikings carried the spice to Scandinavia, which remains a favorite ingredient in baked products and desserts.

The taste is intricate, pungent, piney, citric, and somewhat peppery. Cardamom has been toasted and the ground is excellent in bread, pastries, pig recipes, pilafs, bean dishes, and chicken meals.

How do you use green cardamom pods?

In a dry skillet, toast green cardamom pods for a few minutes. Once they have cooled for one minute, extract the seeds from the pods.

Save the pods to add flavoring to your coffee or tea. For optimal results, pound the seeds using a mortar and pestle, but you may also use a motorized spice grinder (like a coffee grinder).
