Cardamom Black

In India, black cardamom is highly valued for its bold, smoky flavor, making it ideal for spicy and rustic dishes. It can be used generously, especially when slightly crushed to enhance its aroma and intensify the flavors of other ingredients. The pods are 4 to 6 times larger than green cardamom and have a rich, earthy taste that stimulates the palate. Black cardamom is commonly used in rice and meat preparations, as well as in a variety of beverages and sweets.
