Cardamom Black Pods Whole
$3.45
Product description
Black Cardamom Pods impart a sweet earthiness and smoky undertones to recipes they are added to. Black cardamom has a distinctly more smoky, though not bitter, aroma, than green cardamom, with a coolness some consider similar to mint. This difference between the two varieties mean that black cardamom is not generally considered a suitable substitute for green cardamom, particularly in sweet dishes. Black cardamom pods can be 4 to 6 times the size of the small pods of the green cardamom. Black cardamom is most often used whole, whereas green cardamom is commonly used in both whole and ground varieties. The Spice People carry cardamom in the form of these products: cardamom green pods whole, black whole cardamom and cardamom pods ground.Ingredients:
100% dried Whole Black Cardamom PodsHow to use:
- Black cardamom is an ingredient which is most often used in African and Indian vegetarian dishes to add a rich smokey flavour
- Black cardamom pods can be used in soups, chowders, casseroles and marinades for a smoky flavour
- Black cardamom is also used in garam masala, which is commonly used to flavour Indian dishes
- To make black 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
- Bruise lightly and add whole at the beginning of cooking to bloom and remove before serving
- Their flavour is quite pungent when their volatile oils are released, so only add 2-3 at a time
- To gain maximum flavour from the pods, it is advised to open them slightly. To do this, firmly press down on each cardamom pod with the flat side of a sturdy chef's knife.

Pepper Sichuan Ground
Product description
Sichuan Pepper is an oriental fruit grown on a small ash tree native to the Sichuan province of China. Even though it is called pepper, it is not a true pepper and is not related to black peppercorns, which are from India. The berries have a warm peppery fragrance, with citrus notes & a clean fresh aftertaste leaving a slightly numbing sensation on the tongue. It is the outer husk that has all the flavour, the internal hard black seed is edible but can add a bitter taste. It is a key ingredient in Chinese cuisine and used in some Asian recipes. It is used in our chilli sichuan salt and calamari salt and pepper blends.
