More About Product
Black Cardamom, commonly known as Badi Elaichi, comes from the dried seed pods of the Amomum plant. Unlike green cardamom, black cardamom is traditionally cured over an open flame, giving it its signature smoky aroma and intense flavour. It is widely used in Indian, Nepali, Tibetan, and Chinese cuisines, particularly in dishes that require slow cooking and rich spice profiles.
Erel Premium Black Cardamom is carefully selected for its large pods, rich essential oils, and consistent quality, ensuring superior taste and aroma in every recipe.
