- Crush cardamom seeds (use a mortar and pestle or a rolling pin).
- If using pods, remove the white hull pieces.
- Heat milk to lukewarm (in microwave, heat in a microwave safe cup or bowl at 70% power for about 45 seconds). Set milk aside.
- Melt butter (in microwave, heat at 70% power for about 1 minutes, then stir until completely melted). Set melted butter aside.
