Cardamom is indigenous to South India but is now cultivated extensively in Central America.

The green or straw coloured seed pods contain small black seeds that have a strong lemon flavour. It is an indispensable ingredient in Indian cooking.

Crack the seed pods by crushing before use and remove before serving.

An interesting addition to cooked fruit.
