Fudco Cardamom Seeds 75g

Fudco Cardamom Seeds are cardamom seeds already taken out of the pod, packed by Fudco in a 75g bag. Shelling cardamom by hand is slow work when a recipe calls for a spoonful of ground elaichi, so loose seeds save time in the busiest cooking weeks of the year, from Navratri kheer to Diwali barfi and ladoo.

How to use it

Cardamom tastes best ground just before use. Crush the seeds in a pestle and mortar with a pinch of sugar, which helps them break down to a fine powder. A quarter of a teaspoon of ground seeds is enough for a litre of milk in kheer or payasam, or for a batch of sooji halwa. Add a few lightly crushed seeds to the pan when brewing masala chai, or warm them in ghee with cloves and cinnamon before adding rice for a festive pulao.
