With their distinctive eucalyptus and sweet flavour, cardamom is a storecupboard must for all cooks. Essential to curries and chai teas, and the ground seeds are core to much European baking.
Steenbergs Organic Cardamom Pods are the classic 10mm long pale green, oval and knobbly shaped cases that enclose some 10 small, browny-black, oily, pungent seeds. The best way to use the cardamom pods whole but then to crush the pods, slightly cracking or tearing the casing, so you can see the seeds without them coming out; this releases the flavour as you cook with them.
Steenbergs organic cardamom pods come from India, Sri Lanka or Guatemala. Organic cardamom is a wonderful spice that is prized in Indian, Middle Eastern and Scandinavian cookery, especially in sweet cooking like cakes and sweets as well as adding depth of character to savoury dishes that relish that sweet flavour against sourness and the umami of meats.
This version is in the Steenbergs premium stainless steel packaging with see through lid.

Sophie's comment
Sweet, spicy, warm and aromatic, I just love organic cardamom pods - they add a distinctive touch to curries, breads and more, or I just add a few lightly crushed organic cardamom pods into the water when boiling carrots, finding it adds that little something to the flavour. Or why not try Steenbergs organic cardamom pods in an Indian style chai tea or to infuse the flavours through kulfi ice cream.
