WHY I LOVE THIS HEIRLOOM
CORIANDER is one of the oldest herbs and spices on record. Coriander was mentioned in the Bible, and the seeds have been found in ruins dating back to 5000 B.C. It can refer to both an herb and a spice. Although the term coriander is used in much of the world in reference to both cilantro leaves and seeds, in the Americas, it generally refers to the dried cilantro seeds which are used as a spice both in whole form and ground. Cilantro leaves and coriander seeds taste very different and cannot be substituted for each other in recipes. It's a member of the parsley (Apiaceae ) family and an annual plant that grows on slender green stems. The plant can grow up to 60cm tall and the leaves resemble parsley leaves. When coriander flowers, it produces white flowers, with a hint of purple, and round, light brown seeds. These seeds can be harvested and used as spices. Coriander grows as a native plant around the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and in the Americas.
TASTING NOTE: Citrus & spice
