I picked up the Cardamon spice today......kinda expensive I guess to the lack of use of the spice. looking forward to opening it.

CRG, Cardamon is a staple spice in coffee making in my neck of the woods. Especially of it comes whole. Try perculating it with java.

Yeh, but it sure tastes great in them Texas Spicy Hot Links. Just got some ground myself - have been grinding it myself but ran out of the whole.

Only things I can think of right now is Pumpkin pie, Pumpkin pancakes, slipped a little into pecan pie (mistake), spiced muffins, fruitcake (why I originally bought it years ago), spiced cake, and the Texas hot links! Oh and a couple of tangine like dishes I made with some preserved lemons I had made.

Cardamon is widely used here and not just in coffee it is also used alot in cooking especially with rice to give it that extra flavour.

In classy resturents they serve "White Coffee" which is basicaly cardamon boiled in water. An excellant digestive after a heavy meal.

Don't know if I would drink it, but in rice sounds pretty good.
