Popularly known as ‘Queen of Spices’ as opposed to Black Pepper hailed as ‘King of Spice’, Cardamom, sometimes spelt as cardamom or cardamom, is a spice made from the seeds of several plants in the genera Elettaria and Amomum in the family Zingiberaceae.
​
Both genera are native to the Indian subcontinent and Indonesia. The cardamom plant is a perennial herbaceous plant with a pseudo stem and thick irregular-shaped rhizomes. Dried fruit or cardamom pod traded as a spice.

Cardamom pods are spindle-shaped and have a triangular cross-section. The pods contain a number of seeds, which are small and black, while the pods differ in colour and size by species. Cardamom is generally available in the form of whole fruit as a primary product, in-ground form as secondary processed products, and also in the form of extractions of oil and oleoresin as value-added products.

Cardamom lands are generally termed spice forests. Sri Lankan Cardamom suppliers export light green cardamom variety (Elettaria cardamom), which is one of the most expensive spices by weight.

Due to the unique flavor of green cardamom cultivated in Sri Lanka, formed by the country’s unique terroir, green cardamom produced in Sri Lanka is known as Ceylon Cardamom.

In the culinary arts, cardamom is a spice made from the seed pods of various plants in the ginger family. Cardamom has a strong, pungent flavor and aroma, with hints of lemon, mint, and smoke.

Cardamom pods contain a number of seeds, but the entire cardamom pod can be used whole or ground. There are two main types of cardamom: black cardamom and green cardamom.

These top-quality cardamom pods have been ethically sourced from the finest source Sri Lanka (Ceylon), Guatemala, the home and origin of cardamom.

Cardamom is the World’s third-most expensive spice, surpassed in price per weight only by vanilla and saffron.

 

Health Benefits of ​Cardamom - ‘Queen of Spices’

​Cardamom is related to ginger and can be used in the same way to counteract digestive issues and problems. You can use it to combat nausea, acidity, bloating, gas, heartburn, loss of appetite, constipation, and much more.

Make a cup of cardamom tea and take small sips until your stomach calms down. If you don’t have cardamom tea, you can make your own digestive aid with edible cardamom oil or ground cardamom pods and some hot water.

This spice helps the body eliminate waste through the kidneys. This benefit is ideal for those who want to get rid of the toxins and chemicals from their body to speed up weight and fat loss.

Chew on cardamom seeds! Cardamom is an aromatic spice that leaves a fresh, lingering scent in your mouth when you chew on it. In Asian peoples, they chew cardamom seeds after meals or whenever they need to freshen up their breath.

Part of the reason cardamom is such a good detoxifier is thanks to its diuretic properties. It helps clean out the urinary tract, bladder, and kidneys, removing waste, salt, excess water, toxins, and combating infections, too.

Drinking relaxing and calming drinks infused with cardamom may be a way to improve one’s mood.

The science behind the antidepressant qualities of cardamom hasn’t been studied yet, but Ayurvedic medicine swears by the tea as a means to fight depression.

Also, it has a wonderful taste and relaxing scent that helps calm the senses. It might not be clinically proven to fight these mental illnesses, but you can still use them to help alleviate the symptoms.

Apart from helping with bad breath, cardamom is used for sore throats, mouth ulcers, and infections of the mouth and throat.

A recent study found that cardamom seeds and fruit could help improve oral health due to their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The findings showed that the cardamom extract was effective in disrupting bacteria that can lead to gum disease or infections.

This pungent spice may help prevent and relieve cold and flu symptoms. It’s also used for bronchitis and coughs.

In addition to being high in vitamins and minerals, the astringent properties of cardamom tea make it good for helping to fight off bacteria in the body. Drinking a warm cup of cardamom tea can be soothing on a sore throat and can even help suppress coughing.

Animal studies are showing promise that cardamom protects against, inhibits growth, and even kills some cancers.

Keep in mind that there’s not enough proven studies showing that cardamom has any actual effect on the growth and development of cancer cells in humans. Don’t delay seeking medical advice if you suspect you’re at risk.

As a diuretic and fiber-rich spice, cardamom significantly lowers blood pressure. Exercising more, cutting back on sugar and adding more potassium to your diet and consuming less sodium can help keep your blood pressure steady.

Cardamom prevents dangerous blood clots by preventing platelet aggregation and then sticking to the artery walls. In the long run, this may prove to be beneficial in preventing life-threatening clotting.

Many of the vitamins, phytonutrients, and essential oils in cardamom act as antioxidants, cleaning up free-radicals and resisting cellular aging. Getting rid of harmful free-radicals can balance blood sugar and cholesterol levels, improve blood pressure, and promote better overall health.

The volatile essential oils in cardamom inhibit the growth of viruses, bacteria, fungus, and mold. In the long run, this can reduce your susceptibility to common diseases and illnesses.

Tip: To further increase immunity against diseases, take effective supplements such as Sunwarrior’s Immune Shield. Immune shield fights pathogens (bacterial, viral, fungal, parasitic) by interrupting the metabolic reactions and inhibiting cellular replication with ionic silver and trace minerals.

Like ginger and turmeric, its relative, cardamom has some anti-inflammatory properties that limit pain and swelling, especially in mucous membranes, mouth, and throat.

Cardamom is an antispasmodic that can help get rid of hiccups. This also applies to other involuntary muscle spasms, like stomach and intestinal cramps.

Traditional medicine lists cardamom as a powerful aphrodisiac that can help with erectile dysfunction and impotence through better blood circulation. 

         

Specifications of Green Cardamom

Cardamom seeds will keep much of their flavor for longer if they are stored in airtight containers.

To use the pods and seeds in cooking, the pods need to be ground or crushed. This can be managed very easily by using a pestle and mortar. Simply place the cardamom pods in the mortar and lightly pound the pods with the pestle. The pods will burst open and the seeds will ooze out.

If you are using cardamom seeds for baked pastries or breads, just scoop the seeds out of the mortar and add them to the required mixture. For curries or stews, the pod can be added to the cooking pot along with the seeds. After a while the pod will dissolve and a little extra flavor is given to the dish.
