Palestinian cardamom offers an intense yet balanced aroma that enriches your dishes without overpowering them. Highly valued in Palestinian cuisine, it enhances the flavors of many traditional recipes such as chicken broth, maqlouba, aromatic rice, pastries, and, of course, Arabic coffee, where it adds a warm and distinctive note.
🌱 Aroma preserved thanks to whole seeds
Sold in whole seed format (250 g), this cardamom keeps its fragrance longer. Grinding it just before use releases its full aroma, giving you a richer and more intense flavor than pre-ground cardamom. This ensures freshness, intensity, and premium quality for both savory and sweet dishes.
🍽 A versatile spice
In Palestinian cooking, cardamom is essential. It elevates stews, rice dishes, and traditional desserts. It is also a must-have for Arabic coffee preparation. You can even experiment with it in modern recipes – from chocolate desserts to homemade chai lattes and creative marinades.

Palestinement offers you a variety of products from different vendors in Jerusalem’s Old City.
We group these vendors under the label “Old City Vendors” because, at this stage, we don’t offer enough varied products from each of their shops to create separate categories for them.
It is vital to support them: Palestinian shopkeepers in Jerusalem face significant discrimination compared to other merchants. They are burdened with heavy taxes, excluded from state aid, and subjected to constant harassment by the police and tax authorities. On top of this, they are discriminated against when it comes to access to tourists — their main source of income. Most tourists are accompanied by Israeli tour guides who strongly discourage them from buying from Palestinian shops, falsely claiming that doing so would fund terr*rism.
For all these reasons — and many more — let’s support them and help keep the living heritage of Jerusalem’s Old City alive!
