Cardamom pod recipes
cardamom pods
Crush cardamom pods to release their fragrant seeds, or use them whole (lightly toasting them in a dry pan, first). They add a warming, citrus flavour to curries and savoury dishes, and a light sweetness to cakes. Try them crushed in warm milk with black tea and cinnamon for a comforting cuppa.
