Cardamom powder is a fragrant, versatile spice used in both sweet and savory dishes. Add a pinch to cakes, cookies, fruit salads, puddings, or ice cream for warm, aromatic flavour. It also enhances beverages like coffee, chai, hot chocolate, smoothies, and milkshakes.
In savoury cooking, cardamom powder adds depth to curries, stews, biryanis, and rice pilafs. It works well in spice rubs for chicken, lamb, or pork, and boosts the flavour of lentil, pumpkin, or carrot soups.
Tips:
• Use sparingly — the flavour is strong.
• Add near the end of cooking to preserve aroma.
• Store in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to maintain freshness.
