Cardamom A fragrantly warm winter spice – I love it and the cardamom season is getting into full swing in my house where two of our top seasonal favourites flavoured with freshly ground cardamom are: Winter Fruit & Spice Cake and The BEST Gingerbread Biscuits

You reminded me I need to use cardamom more often Shanthini – have you experimented with black cardamom?

  Hi Laura sorry for late reply but yes, Iuse black cardamom in some of my meat curries, particularly pork vindaloo. It adds a smoky warmth…not as sharp as green cardamon.
