Cardamom in Scandinavia and Beyond

Cardamom is often recognized as one of the foundational flavors of Nordic baking, but it is also a beloved spice in other global cuisines. Join Chef Scott Graden of Duluth’s New Scenic Cafe to focus on this elegant and aromatic spice in a meal that captures cardamom in many forms, from a savory tagine to a sweet dessert. As students enjoy a full dinner, lively class discussions will include insight into Chef Scott’s restaurant menus, cooking tricks, and tips for sourcing and working with whole spices.
