DennisLinkletter Posted August 14, 2011 Report Posted August 14, 2011 Re: little help please Spices like coffee are like coffee the fresher the better and ground just before use.. Freshly ground cardamon will fill the house.. You won't believe how much more flavor and aromatics from fresh. I get all my spices from World Spice in Seattle. Their fresh dried parsley is amazing on tri tips too..
slu Posted August 14, 2011 Report Posted August 14, 2011 Re: little help please Larry is correct; it's wonderful on beef. I am particularly fond of it on beef back ribs. If you haven't used cardamom before, I would suggest buying a small amount of ground cardamom first. The seeds are a bit pricey, so if you don't care for the flavor, then you're not out too much $$$. If you like it, then follow Dennis' advice, and purchase the seeds.
scouterpf Posted August 15, 2011 Report Posted August 15, 2011 Re: little help please I try to add cocoa to the above and delete the oil.
slu Posted August 16, 2011 Report Posted August 16, 2011 Re: little help please I delete the oil as well. I'll have to try the cocoa addition!
qundoy Posted August 17, 2011 Author Report Posted August 17, 2011 Re: little help please 1st time i did this brisket i made a mental note to let the meat dry well in the fridge before applying the rub because oil and water dont mix, i could not get the rub to stick. my mental note got lost just as the recipe for the rub did, had the same trouble. i think next rub i will use a nice porter or maybe a bass ale for the liquid. the cocoa sounds interesting.

Loquitur Posted February 19, 2013 Report Posted February 19, 2013 Re: little help please Could somebody retitle this post 'Coffee Cardamom Rub" to make it easier to find?
Dugger Posted February 20, 2013 Report Posted February 20, 2013 Re: Coffee Cardamom Rub I have just returned to Singapore after a week in Oman. The local coffee is made with ground coffee and ground cardomom (and traditionally dates are served with it). A google serach will produce various recipes for Omani coffee. One major variant is whether one uses only the ground seeds or the whole pod. I would have thought for a rub the whole pod makes sense but toasted first. Simon
