Cardamom

A fruit native to India and Papua New Guinea green cardamom pods has been used in sweet and savory cooking for thousands of years throughout India, Asia, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. The Vikings then brought the spice to Scandinavia where it continues to be very popular in baked goods and sweets.

The flavor is complex, fierce, piney, citric, and a bit peppery. Toasted and ground cardamom is phenomenal in breads, pastries, pork dishes, pilafs, legume dishes, and poultry.
