The great thing about Penzeys is that they don't have just cardamom, but four varieties of cardamom, with complete descriptions of the qualities and flavors of each. Their catalog also has recipes. When you order stuff, it generally comes packed in bay leaves and cinnamon sticks - I'm up to my eyeballs in bay leaves! Must make more soup!

If you ever come to Houston there is a Penzy's spice store here. It is fabulous to go there & see & smell all the spices.

My wife and mother-in law have been Penzey's costomers for years. Trust me their spices are far superior to the stuff at the average grocery store.
