Cardamom, Hulled, Pieces
$4.00 / oz (~$1.7/Tbsp)
Cardamom is one of the world’s most prized spices, second only to saffron and vanilla, thanks to its intense flavor and labor-intensive harvest. Grown on tall, tropical plants that bloom for most of the year, cardamom pods are carefully picked by hand just before they fully ripen. Inside each pod are tiny black seeds, which carry the spice’s signature punch of flavor.
This hulled cardamom, also known as decorticated cardamom, contains only the aromatic seeds (no pods) making it easy to use and packed with bold, sweet, floral notes. It’s the essential spice that gives chai its unforgettable taste, but it also shines in baking, curries, spice blends, and even infused into teas or tinctures.
Whether you’re brewing a spiced latte, baking fragrant cookies, or crafting a homemade digestive tonic, hulled cardamom brings warmth, depth, and an irresistible aroma to every recipe.
FYI: Climate change–driven weather extremes, like unseasonal rains and prolonged heat, are disrupting cardamom harvests, leading to reduced yields and limited global supply.
