[Sca-cooks] Re: Noce d'India

  Greetings

The question was asked:
> I have a litle spice mystery on my hands.I have a 14th c italian
recipe which calls for both "Noce d'India" and "Noce Moscato" ...<

  Just an idea - could this possibly be cardamom ?  When it's still in
the pod, it looks sort of like a nut, and IIRC, it's native to India.
Not sure, just guessing, but trying to be of help.
