Cardamom Seed
$24.00Part of the ginger family, Cardamom means grains of paradise. Historically, Cardamom has been used to flavor foods, as an ingredient in perfumes, and even for medicinal purposes.
Known for its sweet and spicy taste, Cardamom seed is used equally in sweet dishes such as breads and cakes and in savory dishes such as meats and curries. Use in baked goods, sprinkle on oatmeal, ice cream, or iced melon, and add to curry. Cardamom has a sharp aroma and distinctive flavor that can be compared to anise or eucalyptus. For a Middle Eastern treat, sprinkle in your coffee.

Amy Elizabeth –
My favorite curry. Disclaimer, I lived and worked in Africa and spent a lot of time in South Africa. I had an exceptional cooking class in Bo Kaap in Cape Town. This curry is true to the original. Love it! PS – Thanks Chef AJ for introducing me to the awesome Local Spicery!

This is a beautiful, powerful, flavor.
When I shred apples, just a little sprinkle, makes it taste like I’m eating a very fancy dessert! What a surprise!

This Bo Kaap Curry seasoning was one of the first spice blends I purchased not too long after the Spicery opened! It is what made me fall in love with curry dishes and many Indian Foods! Not long after I went on a Curry kick, trying many different curry blends and sauces! I got burnt out! I have to say many are too hot/spicey for my stomach!
This Blend is awesome though! Very flavorful and not too hot! LOVE IT! Time to make a trip back to The Spicery and get some more!!
