Green Cardamom Pods
Not surprisingly called the "Queen of Spices" for its intense floral flavor, green cardamom is a rarer spice. In Sri Lanka, small farmers grow heirloom green cardamom in small quantities. We source this fresh whole cardamom in small batches from a farmer collective until their harvest runs out.
Tasting notes of honey and summer flowers.
- Organically grown in Sri Lanka
- Naturally dried under tropical heat
How to use
Crush open the pod using a mortar and pestle or the back of your kitchen knife. Use the pod and the seeds inside in its entirety.
- Make masala chai (chai tea) from scratch
- Add to turmeric latte, spiced cider, spiced hot chocolate and other hot beverages
- Add to cakes, cookies, pies and other baked goods
- Crack a pod into curries, soups and stews for another flavor dimension
Great pairings: Ceylon cinnamon sticks, whole cloves
Excellent pods, very satisfied :)
The best cardamom I ever bought! The fragrance is so intense and it doesn't get lost while baking. I would definitely buy again and again.
They are green! Cooking, baking and tea, it goes with everything. This is the spiciest and most aromatic cardamom pods I have ever tasted.
I have never been able to find green pods here in the states. I use way less than I do with the dried out looking brown pods because the taste of these green pods are way more vibrant. The strong smell of cardamom when I open the package gets me so excited about cooking.
