Not all cardamom is the same. Pammer Indian Cardamom is a different experience entirely.
While green cardamom pods are prized for their delicate floral sweetness, Pammer Indian Cardamom delivers a bolder, more intense aromatic punch — the kind that makes your masala chai unforgettable and your biryani impossible to resist. Sourced from the spice-rich regions of India and brought to you by Asan Oriental Supermarket, Prague's specialist grocery for South Asian, Afghan, Iranian, Turkish, Pakistani, and Arabic products.
This is the cardamom that Indian grandmothers reach for. The one that fills the kitchen with warmth before the chai even reaches the cup.

Best Uses for Pammer Indian Cardamom
-
Masala Chai: The star ingredient. Crush 2 pods per cup into your Wagh Bakri Masala Chai or Tezdum Danedar Black Tea for an authentic Indian street-chai experience

Garam Masala Blends: A core component of homemade garam masala alongside Chaar Masala and black pepper
-
Indian Sweets: Ground seeds add warmth to kheer, gulab jamun, and barfi. Serve with Afghan Nuqal for a cross-cultural dessert spread

Coffee: A single crushed pod in your morning coffee creates the classic Middle Eastern cardamom coffee (Qahwa)
