Grow cardamom for the leaves too

[@shivikrishu]

We use it a lot in India ❤️..in tea. Called as Ealaichi. Cardamom (/ˈkɑːrdəməm/), sometimes cardamon or cardamum, is a spice made from the seeds of several plants in the genera Elettaria and Amomum in the family Zingiberaceae. Both genera are native to the Indian subcontinent and Indonesia.

@@shivikrishu Make you were busy to show up without hearing what The Lady said. She was telling about using the leaves. You just wanted to brag about your knowledge. I wrote that comment to let you know what you missed. Everyone knows about Cardamon In middle east they drink coffee with cardamon Pods. I never saw or knew that there leaves can be used also. Any way thanks for searching on google to enlighten us with your wisdom.

We just came back inside from harvesting the asparagus, just a few plants, 20 or so tops, and now to pull out the grass around it and water it and wait for it again next year, it's sooo amazingly good!

[@Pupil187fsg]

This is an amazing video. Thank you, but in the beginning you seem to say it’s not the same plant as the one with the pods, which is Elettaria cardamommum, known as green cardamom. If it’s not that, what plant is it? Another commenter says it’s not, and now I’m confused. I’d love to see an update, especially if it’s made with that clear, golden voice. I’ll be back. Thanks again.

Cardamom originally came from wild plants located in the Western Ghats in Southern India. The plants grew in such abundance in this region that this area became known as Cardamom Hills. We use it a lot in Indian tea and cooking.

I love to chop fish,season it,then roll it up in a cardamon leaf and steam or broil it.

[@King_of_carrot_flowers]

Inspired by your recent line of videos, I fried up some flowering shoots or 'rabes' of sweet rocket, Hesperis matronalis, as beautiful cottage garden flower that grows like a weed here in Ireland. I read somewhere that they were edible. I didn't die, but I wasn't that impressed by the flavor, unfortunately. I was much more impressed with the taste of the stems of cardoon, a plant I've been growing as an ornamental for years. It tastes a bit like artichoke, to which it is closely related and bears a strong resemblance, but has a texture a lot like celery. Definitely a good spring crop that is perennial and very tolerant of drought.

[@docjody8624]

How do you recommend drying the Cardamom leaves? I have two enormous plants (in pots) to preserve--

[@MoragGambleOurPermacultureLife]

I just always use it fresh. But you could pop it in a drier, or low oven until it's dry and store in an airtight jar.

[@docjody8624]

@@MoragGambleOurPermacultureLife Thank you Matey for replying to a 3-yr.-old Video. I'll take your advice. Dry in my dehydrators. Grind up in the food processor. Make "powder." I have a MESS of Cardamom to preserve. I love the taste of Cardamom in the homemade fudge "SUPERFOOD" I make. It gives the raw 100% cacao an exotic, deep flavor. GOD BLESS YOU!

Morag is in Australia, not the US. It’s probably best that you contact local growers yourself to find a supplier.

[@aaronwetzstein4857]

Question for anyone how can answer , can this plant grow in southern Ontario Canada ?

[@surendersingal2192]

Thank you ma'am. I am user of India n south asia,s cardamom seed. But I never heard that cardamom leaf can grow in Scandinavia? Is it different plant in cardamom family or it is named so because Leaf has same Aromatic smell as Asian Cardamom. But lotsa thank you. More such plants is better because many people can use to goodness of God n Earth.

[@krisvinther]

When does it flower? I’ve had a plant (in a pot) for 8 years minimum and given lots of babies away, but never seen a single flower... I originally purchased it from a nursery 🙂

[@MoragGambleOurPermacultureLife]

Maybe it's not warm enough for it - not sure where you are located.

[@budsmokes777]

I heard it doesn’t like being root bound. May need bigger pot?

[@southafricanrhino]

What you're describing there is a cardamom ginger, AKA false cardamom & dwarf Cardamom. True cardamom, Elettaria cardamomum, should not have any fragrant to their leaves and are very tall plants, full grown size is 2 meters or more. False cardamom leaves are fragrant and can be used in tea/cooking but the fruits are nothing like the true cardamom, and therefore these two plants cannot be used interchangeably.

[@MoragGambleOurPermacultureLife]

Yes, not the true cardamom, but a wonderful plant in the garden ecology

[@nroytv]

I am just curious - why do you keep calling it cardamoN ?

[@MoragGambleOurPermacultureLife]

This is not true green cardamom, sorry to say. It’s Alpinia nutans, or cinnamon ginger. Real cardamom does not have aromatic leaves, and the growth habit is much taller. If you’re in the US looking for this plant, let me know! I have the real thing.
