Ten pods is the equivalent of about 1 ½ teaspoons of spice.

Cardamom is held in such high esteem in terms of aromatic and culinary value that it is affectionately referred to as the queen of spices. Both pod and seed contain a long list of naturally occurring volatile oils, many of which are antioxidants. 

In addition to adding flavor to Indian curries, bean and rice dishes and tea and coffee blends, cardamom pods are used to create sweet treats. For instance, in India and Pakistan, cardamom combines with pistachio and raisins in a popular rice pudding called Elaichi kheer. Pistachio and cardamom also team up in Indian ice cream, also known as kulfi.
