Dried Black Cardamom Tsaoko 1kg

Black cardamom has a tarry smell and a coarse, strong pine flavour. In contrast to green cardamom, which is considered a 'cooling' spice, black cardamom is a 'heating' spice.

It is an important ingredient in combination with cloves, cinnamon, and pepper in garam masala and tandoori-style spice mixtures. black cardamom is also used occasionally in confectionery and pickles. When pods are used whole in vegetable or meat stews they should be removed before serving, but crushed seeds will dissolve into the sauce. The flavour is intense so use sparingly. Black cardamom is never used as a substitue for green cardamom.
