BLACK CARDAMON

Black cardamom, also known as Begal cardamom or brown cardamom, is similar to the Indian green cardamom but has a much smokier flavour, as it is traditionally dried over an open fire. It is most commonly used in slow-cooked meat stews and is never used in sweet dishes.

Like green cardamom, you can remove the seeds or use the pods whole.
