Product Description
Black Cardamom is a spice native to the eastern Himalayas and is a member of the ginger family (Zingiberaceae). It comes from a perennial herbaceous plant with large, dark green leaves and aromatic seeds. The plant produces clusters of seeds within large, dark brown to black pods. This has a smoky and earthy flavor with a hint of camphor. It is distinct from green cardamom, which has a sweeter and more floral taste. Black Cardamom is often used in combination with other spices, such as cinnamon, cloves, and green cardamom, to create complex spice blends for various dishes.
