Same with Cardamom. I still find the lack of Cardamom in the west weird. It is such an incredible spice yet Americans are obsessed with Cinnamon in their sweet

Cardamom goes really well with sweet stuff.
- KozmoNau7 8y agoCardamom is widely used in Scandinavian sweet baked goods, especially around Christmas. I also occasionally add a pod when I make a cup of tea.
- wink 8y agoI'd even go as far as saying this is one of the reasons. From January people are kinda fed up because in Nov/Dev everything tastes like it. At least in my circle of friends sooner or later someone says "this tastes like Christmas" - which is usally an indicator of Cardamom, unless very much hidden in e.g. Indian food.
- lowtolerance 8y agoAgreed, cardamom has an amazing flavor that works in savory or sweet applications. No idea why it’s so underrepresented in western cuisine.
