Cardamom
Cardamom is an aromatic spice from the ginger family, sold as dried green pods containing small black seeds or in pre-ground form. Its intensely fragrant, citrus-mint flavor with herbal undertones makes it indispensable in both Indian curries and Scandinavian baked goods. The whole pods preserve volatile oils better than ground versions, maintaining potency for savory dishes like biryani, sweet applications like chai tea, and traditional spice blends such as garam masala.
