The spice most often called the "queen of spices" is cardamom.
Cardamom, particularly green cardamom ( Elettaria Cardamomum Maton), is highly prized for its aromatic flavor and is often referred to as the "queen of spices." Its unique and complex flavor profile makes it a versatile ingredient in both sweet and savory dishes. It belongs to the ginger family and is considered one of the most exotic and expensive spices in the world, second only to saffron and vanilla.
