About Spices, coriander leaf, dried
One plant, Coriandrum sativum, gives the kitchen two very different ingredients: the fresh green leaves that Americans call cilantro, and the dried round seeds sold as coriander. The bright, citrusy leaves define much of Mexican, Indian, and Southeast Asian cooking, while the warm, nutty, gently sweet seeds anchor curries, pickles, and countless spice blends. Both bring antioxidants and beneficial plant compounds for next to no calories.
Cilantro is showered fresh over tacos, salsas, curries, and soups, and the seeds are toasted whole then ground so their fragrance blooms. There is a well-documented quirk here: a subset of people carry a gene variant that makes the fresh leaves taste soapy rather than herbal. To hold on to cilantro's flavor, stir it in at the very end of cooking rather than early. Keep the fresh herb in the refrigerator with the stems standing in a little water, and store whole coriander seeds in a sealed jar away from light, grinding them as you need them.
