Fudco Malabar Jumbo Green Cardamom 50g
Description
Aroma: Heady, Camphoraceous & Sweetly Floral
Flavour: Refreshing Menthol, Zesty Citrus & a Warm Pepper Finish
Fudco Malabar Jumbo Green Cardamom is sourced from the lush Malabar Coast of India, a region synonymous with the world’s finest spices. The "Jumbo" grade signifies the largest, most mature pods, which are hand-selected for their vibrant green colour and heavy seed weight. These premium pods contain a higher concentration of cineole oil, providing a deeper, more resonant fragrance than standard cardamom.
-
The Secret Pinch: For a truly professional depth of flavour, lightly bruise the pod to crack the husk before dropping it into your pot. If using for baking or coffee, extract the inner black seeds and grind them immediately; the oils in Malabar cardamom are highly volatile and are at their peak the moment the seed is crushed.
-
Culinary Versatility: This is the "Queen of Spices" for Royal Biryanis, Lamb Kormas, and Masala Chai. Its sophisticated sweetness is equally at home in Western desserts like poached pears, shortbread, or chocolate ganache. Because these pods are aesthetically perfect, they are ideal for garnishing festive "Shahi" dishes.
-
Premium Ingredients: Malabar cardamom is prized for its "bold" pods and dark, sticky seeds. Fudco ensures these are dried at controlled temperatures to lock in the chlorophyll, maintaining the bright green hue that indicates freshness and high essential oil content.
-
Authentic Heritage: Historically, Malabar was the heart of the global spice trade. In Ayurvedic tradition, this cardamom is valued for its "Sattvic" qualities cooling the body, clarifying the mind, and acting as a powerful digestive aid after rich, indulgent meals.
-
Storage & Care: To preserve the delicate floral top notes, store these 50g of pods in a small, airtight glass jar away from direct sunlight. Never store them near strong-smelling spices like cumin or chilli, as cardamom pods are porous and can absorb outside odours, dulling their unique Malabar profile.
