Cardamom (or kardamom or cardamom) is the dried fruit of a plant belonging to the ginger family. It is one of the most expensive spices and has been known since ancient times as the plant that stimulates appetite, while it has the reputation of increasing sexual desire in men.
It has a distinctive flavor, with a strong aroma. It is a cardiac tonic, diuretic, and expectorant. Its most well-known property is that it enhances digestive function. Additionally, it is particularly beneficial for the liver. It has a taste that is both bitter and sweet, slightly lemony, and is very aromatic. It mainly accompanies salads but also cooked vegetables.
In Arab countries, they add a little cardamom to coffee for better flavor, while in Africa it is added to tea. It is one of the ingredients in curry powder. The seeds are also used whole in pickles and marinades. Cardamom is preferred in seed form because in powdered form it quickly loses its aroma; we keep them in a tightly sealed container and grind them just before cooking.
