[Sca-cooks] Cardamom?

[lilinah at earthlink.net]

I was wondering whether anyone has found SCA-period European recipes 
that call for cardamom. While I have found SCAdians' "redactions" 
that use it, especially in spice blends, I can't think of any period 
European recipes that actually call for cardamom.

I'm just curious, because there are so many other Asian spices that 
were used in Europe that are no longer, such as long pepper, 
galangal, and grains of paradise. Why not cardamom?
