Spot the Difference: How to Identify Real and Fake Elaichi 

Cardamom, commonly known as elaichi, is one of the most valuable and aromatic spices used in Indian kitchens. From masala chai to rich curries and sweets, its flavour is unmatched. However, with rising prices and increasing demand, the market has seen a surge in adulterated or fake cardamom. Consuming such fakes can not only compromise flavour but also pose health risks. Hashtag Magazine tells you how to distinguish real elaichi from the counterfeit ones and what consumers and authorities can do about it. 1. Why Is Elaichi Being Faked? Cardamom is one of the most expensive spices by weight. High-quality green cardamom from regions like Kerala and Karnataka fetches premium prices. To capitalise on this, unscrupulous traders often mix inferior or dyed cardamom pods, or even entirely fake seeds, into the supply chain. Some even dye old or dried pods green to make them look fresh. 2. How to Identify Real Elaichi a) Colour and Appearance Real elaichi: Natural green, not overly shiny or unnaturally bright. The shade can range from pale green to deep forest green, depending on the region. Fake elaichi: Often unnaturally bright or uniform in colour. If pods appear unusually shiny, it may be due to artificial colouring. b) Smell Real elaichi has a strong, sweet, aromatic smell. You’ll recognise it instantly as the typical elaichi fragrance. Fake or dyed pods may lack fragrance or smell slightly chemical or artificial. c) Texture Gently press a pod. Real pods are firm but may crack slightly to reveal tiny black seeds inside. Fake pods may be unusually soft, hollow, or have empty or dried-out interiors. d) Water Test Drop a few pods into a glass of warm water. Real elaichi: The pods may sink, and the water may slowly release the natural fragrance. Fake or colored elaichi: May
