I definitely recommend getting cardamom from an Indian specialty store.

I also really like Penzey's spices, and they not only stock some unusual things, but often have several different varieties of common spices (like cinnamon).<br /><br />I haven't tried as many things from Frontier or Mountain Rose Herbs but I've generally had good experiences with them too!Alex Zorachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08335878680429494039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825055425170299721.post-29629456951542053432010-05-17T22:09:42.982-04:002010-05-17T22:09:42.982-04:00I love cardamom, too.

I have found that lacking any Eastern or middle Eastern Stores, Penzey's Spices - mail order or online is often quite good - buy all my unusual spices there unless I've just been to one of the afore-mentioned stores. Frontier is also good, but you usually need to be large amounts. Mountain Rose Herbs is also good.marlenahttp://teafortoday.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8825055425170299721.post-51364238047505908192010-05-17T17:04:45.663-04:002010-05-17T17:04:45.663-04:00Ahh yes!

I love Cardamo...You know, I have the same feelings.<br />I love Cardamom.<br />When I make chai, I usually add three pods worth of cardamom per 1 and a half cups.<br />The flavor is not overwhelming, but it just seems so much more full when there is cardamom present!<br />I especially love cardamom in home made breads!Sir William of the Leafhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15366359211931253914noreply@blogger.com
