Description

Black cardamom is a popular Indian spice. It is in the form of seed pods, which are dark brown to black in color and take on a smokey flavor due to the way they are dried. Cardamom is used for its bold and assertive taste and is the world's third-most expensive spice. It is most commonly used in Indian cookery. 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. Store in an air-tight container and use as required. It is much stronger than green cardamom, with a bold, resinous, and smoky flavor and is used to give depth to masalas and tandoori-style spice.
