Apples In Cardamom-Lime Syrup

  1. Gently smash the cardamom pods with a heavy object.
  2. Combine the cardamom pods, water, lime juice, and sugar in a medium non-reactive saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, then turn the heat down to medium, and simmer for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the apples to the simmering syrup and set a salad plate or saucer (slightly smaller than the diameter of the pan) on the apples to keep them submerged. Simmer very gently for 8 to 10 minutes, or until barely tender when pierced with a toothpick.
  4. Remove from the heat and let the apples cool without removing the saucer for about an hour, then chill them in the syrup. The apples keep in the refrigerator for at least a week. They get better with time. Serve chilled.
