Quite tasty. Great in baked goods and spice mixes. Grind it in your coffee grinder and don’t clean your grinder. Cardamom in coffee is a treat.
I arrived on contract in Arabia feeling like something the cat left in the litter box. Feeling like death warmed over, I fell asleep in the line shack which Stateside was a serious offense for a contractor. One of the Arab pilots came in to make tea. Worried about sleeping I apologized, he said no problem. He asked if I was okay and when I told him about being sick he said here, chew on these, swallow the black seeds inside and spit out the husk. It was cardamom. He was right it settled my stomach a bit and we had cardamom tea. He said cardamom helps with many things but it is great for upset stomachs. We became friends and I was his PC for the next year. Been drinking cardamom tea and coffee ever since. Maybe scientists should have asked a Bedouin, they drink a strong tea made out of nothing but cardamom. They claimed it was good for you, guess they were right.
Great idea. Thanks!
