Native to the south of India, cardamom has a culinary footprint that spans a wide region, from India to the Middle East to Scandinavia.  Often called the "Queen of Spices," cardamom can be found in curries and chai, in breads and pastries, lending them its sweet nutty aroma and flavor.

The fibrous cardamom pods are broken open to reveal these seeds, which can be crushed or ground to release flavors.  This pendant contains whole pods.
