- For a better flavour bruise the pods and add them to your dish
- Tea and coffee made with cardamom are pleasantly aromatic and refreshing
- Add a little to your ground coffee before brewing, then sweeten and top with cream, to enjoy cardamom the Arabic way
- Many pulaos, curries and hot dishes call for cardamom to be added whole, with the pod. It slowly infuses the dish with its essence and the shell disintegrates as it cools.
- Western desserts like flans, rice pudding and porridge also use cardamom to intensify the flavour
- Their flavour is quite pungent when their volatile oils are released, so only add 2-3 at a time
- To make green cardamom powder, grind the whole cardamom in a mixer to a fine powder. Pass the ground powder through a sieve to remove the outer skin
