Organic Cardamom Pod

Description

Our Organic Cardamom Pods are grown on a small scale, family owned farm in Honduras. Sweet, aromatic, and gently citrusy, these whole green pods offer a complex flavour that enhances both sweet and savoury dishes.

Our organic cardamom is hand harvested, non-irradiated, and non-GMO, and carefully handled to preserve its natural oils and rich aroma. Used whole or lightly crushed, the pods release their essential oils slowly, adding depth and warmth to recipes.

Cardamom pods are widely used in teas, baking, and cooking. They are especially valued in global cuisines for their distinctive flavour. They also serve a key ingredient in several of our in-house blends, including Chai Spice, Apple Spice, and Garam Masala.

Hand packed on Vancouver Island, BC, our cardamom pods are a versatile kitchen staple that bring aromatic complexity, gentle warmth, and a subtle citrus lift to everyday recipes.

Where We Direct Source the Best Organic Cardamom Pod

About our Honduran Supplier

We import cardamom pods and seeds, plus allspice berries, from a family business in Honduras. Established in 1982, this small-scale company is committed to organic farming, which is the traditional way of their people. They are also passionate about shining a light on the products that come from their country and desire to share them with the rest of the world.

In recent years, due to two massive hurricanes that wiped out road infrastructure in 2020, both farming and getting products to market has become much more difficult. We feel proud to support a small-scale family operation in an area of the world that is struggling to meet many of the basic needs of their people.

In our Campbell River facility, we grind their cardamom seeds to create a cardamom powder and we use their allspice berries in our holiday blends. We are proud to sell Honduran cardamom pod, seed, powder, and allspice under our Gathering Place brand.
