Why is cardamom called the Queen of Spices? Could it be its rare scent, its unique eucalyptus-mint-herbaceous flavor, its princely price or its curative medicinal properties … you be the judge. Our research turned up no decree or definitive answer. Perhaps this majestic spice named herself by royal proclamation.
Green cardamom is the most widely used type, desirable because it is picked before maturity and delivers a richer flavor.
Pods can be used whole or ground. To get the most flavor, crush the pods before adding to your dish.
Remember, a little goes a long way with this fragrant spice.
