All About Wild Elephant Organic Ground Cardamom:
Wild Elephant Organic Ground Cardamom is milled to a fine powder with a strong, sweet aroma and bright notes of lemon and mint. It is ready to use straight from the tin, so there are no pods to crush before you cook.
Cardamom is having a real moment, turning up in everything from cardamom buns and spiced coffee to golden lattes and clean-label bakes. A ground spice makes it easy to add that flavour to your own cooking. It is made from the seeds of plant species native to India and Indonesia.
Cardamom has been used for centuries in both cooking and traditional medicine. The seeds are a natural source of calcium, iron, potassium and magnesium, plus plant compounds with anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.
Instructions for Use:
Ground cardamom is a versatile spice for sweet and savoury cooking alike. Stir it into rice, lentils and vegetable dishes, or fold it through cakes, buns and biscuits. It is also a classic way to flavour tea, chai and coffee. A little goes a long way, so start small.
Packaging Details:
Our Wild Elephant spices come in eco-friendly, 100% recyclable packaging: an easy and convenient tin that keeps the spice fresh for longer.
Storage Instructions:
Store in a cool dry place, away from direct sunlight, heat and damp.
