[Sca-cooks] cardamom

[Susanne Mayer]

whole and unroasted and just from this year's spring.

BTW never ever let a *combat cook* (uses every thing in frindge,cupboard etc 
that does not hide,to amke a savory dish) get into your spices. You do NOT 
need 500g of Cardamom to spice about 5kg rice (uncooked)! No one could eat 
that, well almost no one,...
