Premium Grade White Cardamom (3 oz)

What Is White Cardamom (Bai Dou Kou)?

White Cardamom refers to the dried seed pods of the Amomum species, often Amomum kravanh or Amomum compactum, and is sometimes called Chinese round cardamom. Unlike green cardamom, white cardamom delivers a lighter, more delicate flavor with gentle aromatic notes reminiscent of citrus and mint, making it ideal for both savory and sweet dishes.
