It was a rainy, silent Saturday, and it happened that I slept up until the second coffee... so I missed my usually first coffee >D But I made it extra weekend flavour How, you ask? I tell you: Cardamom. I like spices (I like spicing up things) whenever I travel somewhere, I take a trip to the market or delicacy shops as I had the chance (but I told you about this before> https://noise.cash/post/l6pxx25m ). OK, we can say that I collect spices... I always have some around and I like using them quite often. And the idea to make a dish based on the spice ... so I pick a spice and I plan my dinner or lunch on the spice.. it's not stranger to me. Cardamom is my spice if I need to choose one... (but It's hard to choose only one) because it works also as a simple aroma ... makes you filled up with energy, smile. Especially if you add to your coffee today I simply crushed and put a pod in the mokka-pot :D Usually is a weekend thing, when I'm in no rush... the smell is gorgeous... exotic lands, lush bazaars and sun. It lifts the taste of the coffee, ads edge, refreshing it with energy and extra warmth. I like that it's something elemental in the smell and taste of it. After all is one of the oldest spices which is traded by the Babylonians and Assyrians... it's a commodity known from the third millenium BCE. Just imagine... 5000 years ago, it was already traded... that's what I call HODL. Green cardamom was a luxury, in the western world entering in Venice in the medieval times, sometimes referring to it like the spice of kings. Spices being a valuable commodities it's not a surprise.... after all, they make something tasteful, something good even better. So don't forget to spice up your life sometimes! What is your favourite Spice? Best wishes to the weekend! :D
