Frequently Asked Questions

Is buying cardamom seeds better value than whole pods? Yes — cardamom pods are approximately 80% hull by weight. Cardamom seeds provide all the flavor and aroma without paying for the hull, making them more economical per unit of aromatic compound.

How should I store cardamom seeds to preserve freshness? Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark location. Cardamom seeds lose their essential oils rapidly when exposed to air and light — grind only what you need and keep the rest sealed.

What is the difference between green and black cardamom? Green cardamom (Elettaria cardamomum) has a sweet, floral, aromatic character used in sweets, chai, and biryani. Black cardamom (Amomum subulatum) has a smoky, camphor-like character used in savory meat preparations. These are entirely different spices.
