Steenbergs Black Cardamom Spice - 30g

Discover the rich and smoky allure of Steenbergs Black Cardamom Spice, a culinary gem that brings a distinctive depth to your cooking. This 30g jar of black cardamom pods is a must-have for any kitchen, offering a unique flavour profile that sets it apart from its green counterpart. Known for its bold and robust character, black cardamom is a staple in many traditional dishes, adding a touch of authenticity and complexity to your culinary creations.

Each pod of Steenbergs Black Cardamom is carefully selected and packed to ensure the highest quality. The pods are larger and darker than green cardamom, with a tough, wrinkled exterior that encases the aromatic seeds within. When used in cooking, these pods impart a smoky, earthy flavour with hints of camphor and menthol, making them ideal for hearty dishes and slow-cooked recipes.

Black cardamom is particularly popular in Indian and Southeast Asian cuisines, where it is often used in savoury dishes such as curries, stews, and biryanis. Its robust flavour pairs beautifully with meats, lentils, and rice, enhancing the overall taste and aroma of the dish. The spice is also a key ingredient in the traditional Indian spice blend, garam masala, where it contributes to the warm, spicy notes that define this classic mix.

To use Steenbergs Black Cardamom, simply add the whole pods to your dish during cooking, allowing the flavours to infuse and develop over time. For a more intense flavour, you can lightly crush the pods before adding them to your recipe. The seeds can also be ground and used as a spice rub for meats or as a seasoning for roasted vegetables.

Each jar is packed with care, ensuring that you receive a product that is both fresh and flavourful.
