Cardamom, often called the “Queen of Spices,” is derived from the seeds of plants in the genera Elettaria and Amomum, both belonging to the ginger family (Zingiberaceae) [1][3]. It is native to the evergreen forests of the Western Ghats in South India and has been used as a spice for centuries [2]. Cardamom pods are small, triangular, and have a papery outer shell that contains aromatic black seeds [6]. It is widely used to flavor foods, beverages, and sweets, and is valued for its medicinal properties, including digestive and respiratory benefits. Cardamom ranks as the second most important spice in India, following black pepper, highlighting its significance in Indian cuisine and culture [4].
