Cardamom is a fragrant, aromatic spice known for its sweet and slightly spicy flavor, with hints of citrus and floral notes. It is commonly used in both sweet and savory dishes, such as desserts, curries, chai tea, and spice blends. There are two main types of cardamom—green and black—each offering distinct flavors. Green cardamom is often used in baking and beverages, while black cardamom has a smokier, more robust taste ideal for savory dishes. Cardamom is also celebrated for its health benefits, including aiding digestion, freshening breath, and providing anti-inflammatory properties.
