Ground cardamom is a spice made from the finely ground seeds of the cardamom plant, known for its complex sweet, spicy, and citrusy flavor. It is used in a wide variety of sweet and savory dishes, including Indian curries, Scandinavian pastries, baked goods, and coffee and tea blends. What it is A spice from the seeds: Ground cardamom is made by powdering the seeds of the green cardamom plant. Complex flavor: It has a unique and aromatic flavor profile that is both sweet and spicy, often with citrus and eucalyptus-like notes. Culinary uses Sweet dishes: It is a common ingredient in baking, desserts, and Indian sweets. Savory dishes: It enhances the flavor of curries, rice dishes, and other savory meals. Spice blends: It is a key component in spice mixtures like garam masala. Beverages: It is used to add flavor to hot drinks like masala chai and Turkish coffee. Tips for use For a smooth texture: Ground cardamom dissolves well in liquids, creating a smooth texture in custards, creams, and milk-based drinks. To preserve flavor: Ground cardamom loses its flavor more quickly than whole pods, so it's best to buy smaller amounts and store it in an airtight container.
