Cardamom (Black) – 100 gms (Fire Dried)

Description

Black cardamom is a popular Indian spice, called badi elaichi or kali elaichi, that is used in many of the cuisine’s signature dishes. It is in the form of seed pods, which are dark brown to black in color and take on a smokey flavor due to the way they are dried. Cardamom is used for its bold and assertive taste and is the world’s third-most expensive spice. Green cardamom pods come from the Elettaria cardamomum plant and are harvested before they mature, while black pods are picked much later and then dried over a Fire. In recipes, Black Cardamom should not be used if a recipe calls for green cardamom as the two pods have extremely different taste profiles.
(Green can be used in place of black, but the signature smokiness will be absent.)
Whereas green cardamom contributes a subtle, delicate taste to dishes, Black Cardamom packs a punch.Antioxidant and Diuretic Properties
