Cardamom ....

Cardamom is in the form of a small seedpod, triangular in cross section and spindle shaped, with a thin papery outer shell and small black seeds. Cardamom has a strong, unique taste, with an intensely aromatic fragrance. Cardamom is a pod consisting of an outer shell with little flavor, and tiny inner seeds with intense flavor. Fancy white and green pods have no splits or cracks in the shell, so the flavor keeps well........
