Cardamom seeds, derived from green cardamom, are small seeds with a pungent fragrance and distinctive flavor. The seeds contain the essence of the cardamom's flavor, while the green surrounding part is the husk. Chewing these seeds on their own releases a sweet and peppery flavor with a cooling and refreshing effect, akin to menthol. In Indian cuisine, they are frequently used as a breath freshener. Cardamom seeds are versatile and can be employed to flavor curry dishes, meat seasonings, daals, rice dishes, drinks, and desserts.
