I use cardimon seeds to my husbands Grandmother's Finish coffee bread recipe. The little jars at the store are so expensive. My cousin was able to get me a pound at the co-op she orders from for a little more than what I pay for an ounce at the store. I just don't know the best way to store them.I have a vacumn sealer with the canisters? or freeze them? What do you ladies think? Thank you!

I would vacuum seal them and then freeze them. Most herbs loose potency when the oils in them degrade so I don't think it would hurt them to freeze them- but I really have no idea :)

Definitely freeze them. It will keep fresh for quite awhile.
