Black Cardamom
Smoky, bold, and deeply complex, Black Cardamom is a game-changer in slow-cooked dishes. Unlike its green counterpart, this spice has a rich, almost camphor-like aroma with notes of resinous wood, earth, and a hint of citrus. Traditionally used in Indian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern cuisine, it adds depth to curries, braises, and spice blends.
Best used whole, black cardamom is often toasted or simmered to release its intense, smoky essence. Whether you're crafting a bold garam masala, infusing broths, or building layers of flavor in stews, this spice delivers unmistakable character.
