Typical black/large cardamom pod weight ~0.4 g.
Instead of Large cardamom pod
Black cardamom podUse the same number by weight; crush slightly to open. This is the closest smoky flavour.
Green cardamom podUse 2–3 pods per large pod, crushed; more floral and less smoky.
Ground black cardamomUse about 60% of the weight, e.g. 0.3 g ground for a 0.5 g pod; add early so it mellows.
