Burlap & Barrel Cloud Forest Cardamom | Whole Cardamom Pods

Whole Cloud Forest Cardamom Pods from Guatemala

Burlap & Barrel Cloud Forest Cardamom brings sweet, tart flavor with notes of summer fruit, fresh herbs and cut grass to rice, curries and slow-cooked dishes. Grown on a single estate in the cloud forests of Alta Verapaz, Guatemala, this cardamom ripens yellow and has a slightly softer, sweeter flavor than standard green cardamom.

Use these whole cardamom pods in recipes that call for green cardamom. Lightly crack them before adding to a pot of rice or a fragrant braise, letting their aromatic flavor infuse the dish as it cooks.

How to Cook with Whole Cardamom Pods

• Fragrant rice: Crack pods in a mortar and pestle and add at the beginning of cooking.
• Curries and stews: Add pods early so their sweet, herbal flavor develops in the sauce.
• Chicken and beef braises: Add a few pods to the braising liquid.
• Green cardamom recipes: Use Cloud Forest Cardamom wherever your recipe calls for whole green cardamom.

Origin: Alta Verapaz, Guatemala.

Format: Whole cardamom pods.
