Green Cardamom is a versatile spice that lends itself to both sweet and savoury dishes. The Queen of Spice, as it is oft referred to, is widely known to bakers, and is a companion to cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves in baker’s recipes. It is the essential ingredient in our seductive Scorpio’s Kiss blend! Befitting a Queen, it is the second most expensive spice available (behind saffron).

Green Cardamom seeds can be used whole in jams and pickles and add a delicious sophistication to coffee, tea or fruit lassies, meats and vegetables, too.

If you like the flavour but prefer to avoid the seeds, use a small piece of cheesecloth to create ‘Bouquet Garni’ (a small bundle of herbs and spices).

And if you’re wondering what to do with your glorious green cardamom, how about Lamb and Cardamom Stew or a Maple-Cardamom Old Fashioned cocktail?
