Cardamom Seeds
Bold aroma, sweet warmth, and a little citrus sparkle! Cardamom seeds deliver a distinctive blend of floral, citrusy, and gently spicy flavor. These small, dark seeds come from the pods of a tropical plant in the ginger family.
A favorite in Indian cooking and Scandinavian baking, cardamom adds depth to curries, rice, pastries, coffee, and chai. Grind the seeds fresh for smooth incorporation into doughs and spice blends. Use sparingly—a little goes a long way!
