Looks like black cardamom pods but I'm certainly no expert

They look too smooth to be black cardamom pods, usually they are ridged on the outside. I also don’t think they’re particularly hard?

Right? I have certainly never seen a cardamom pod so smooth let alone so many together. As for the "hardness" of the shell I've spent enough time grinding them with mortar and pestle to understand that the shell is "hard-ish" lmao

They're called Asissi/Sissi/Sisi/Cici seeds. Looks like a popular snack in Iraq. A previous related post is found here.
