Coriander Seeds

Description

Coriander seeds come from the dried fruit of the coriander plant, which traces its origins to regions surrounding the Mediterranean Sea and western Asia. The seeds have an earthy, tart yet subtly sweet citrus flavor. When dry-roasted or toasted, they release a lovely, floral aroma. Use coriander seeds whole in Georgian cooking for pickling brines, meat stews like Chakhokhbili, and in boiled dishes like Lobio.The whole seeds infuse food with flavor as they slowly soften. Ground coriander powder has a more potent flavor and works great for spice rubs and mixes, marinades, curries, soups, and seasoning vegetables. The versatile, bright taste of coriander livens up and complements meat, beans, rice, sauces, and more. It's an essential ingredient in cuisines from Europe to Asia.
