Amomum Subulatum
''Amomum subulatum'', also known as Black cardamom, hill cardamom, Bengal cardamom, greater cardamom, Indian cardamom, Nepal cardamom, winged cardamom, big cardamon, or brown cardamom, is a perennial herbaceous plant in the family Zingiberaceae. Its seed pods have a strong, camphor-like flavour, with a smoky character derived from the method of drying. In Hindi it is called (baḍī ilāicī).

Species At least two distinct species of black cardamom occur: ''Amomum subulatum'' (also known as Nepal cardamom) and '' Amomum tsao-ko''. The pods of ''A. subulatum,'' used primarily in the cuisines of India and certain regional cuisines of Pakistan, are the smaller of the two, while the larger pods of ' ...
