Cardamom whole with peel, organic 50g

Cardamom, the queen of spices, is revered in southern India. Cardamom is now also increasingly valued in the West. As was the case thousands of years ago, cardamom is valued for its unique aroma and is one of the most expensive spices after saffron and vanilla.

Cardamom from southern India is the best quality, as cardamom still grows wild in the damp mountain forests there. The spice plant belongs to the ginger family and, in contrast to ginger or turmeric, has a cooling effect and brings with it its very own aroma.
