Whole and Ground - Veracruz Cardamom

DESCRIPTION: 
Genus: Elettaria
Species: Elettaria cardamomum

It is native to India, where it is widely used in cooking and as a remedy in Ayurvedic medicine. In Scandinavian countries, it is traditionally used in baking, and Arabs and Egyptians combine it with coffee, to which it adds a delicious balance.

Uses: Whole cardamom is usually used to flavor liquid preparations or stews. It is very common in Indian and Asian cuisine, although once we become familiar with this spice, we can incorporate it to taste into our usual recipes, just as we would with rosemary or thyme.
Ground cardamom is necessary in some preparations, for example, to make bread, buns, or cookies, although it can also be added to stews. For its contribution to be optimal, as with all spices, it is ideal to grind it just before adding it to the preparation, so that it releases all its aroma and flavor.
