Cardamom Masala is a wonderfully aromatic, sweet and spicy Indian blend. Sometimes known as “elaichi masala”, cardamom masala features cardamom as its main ingredient. While cardamom is used worldwide, cardamom masala is particularly significant in Indian culinary traditions.
On the Indian subcontinent, cardamom has been used for over 4000 years and in ancient India, it was highly prized, regarded as a symbol of luxury and hospitality. It was almost always included in the spice blends of royal kitchens.
The cardamom, coriander seeds, cinnamon, red chillies, cumin, clove and toasted coconut make this a highly versatile blend. It is great mixed with a little yoghurt and coated over meat and/or poultry before leaving to marinate for hours.
This Indian spice blend is perfect for making Chicken Cardamom Masala, Parsnip, Pea and Carrot Curry or Masala Rice. This Masala mix can also be used for seasoning finished mild curries like Korma or Pasanda for a nice kick.
Meanwhile, in Indian sweets and desserts, this masala mix is often used to infuse a warm, aromatic flavour. It’s a common choice for flavouring milk-based sweets and treats.
This product was also featured in Delia Smith’s recipe for Shami Kebabs in her cookbook ‘How to Cheat at Cooking’ (page 39).

I love Cardamom and it sits right in the middle of this wonderful taste spectrum – I made a veg and Quorn curry, thickened with ground cashews. It was luscious.

Great flavour, very pleased with all spices I’ve received from S Pioneers! This is a spice but balanced with coconut, very nice. Fleur de sel salt is great too. I think all the herbs and I spices I’ve got are fantastic flavours!

I came across this spice a few years ago and have been searching for regular outlet. Have now found it with Seasoned Pioneers! I put a large pinch of this spice in my Korma recipe which gives it a slight kick in heat and much more depth of flavour.
