Bacon with Brown Sugar and Cardamom (Cardamom)

Seasoning bacon with brown sugar and fragrant cardamom and baking it in the oven puts this breakfast mainstay over the top. Cardamom boasts warm, spicy sweetness with hints of ginger, nutmeg and pepper. For the best flavor, lightly crush whole cardamom pods and then whirl them, along with the seeds inside, in an electric spice grinder until finely ground.
