Coriander seed is a spice derived from the dried seeds of the coriander plant, which is also known as cilantro or Chinese parsley. These seeds have a warm, citrusy flavor with hints of sweetness and earthiness, distinct from the fresh leaves of the plant. Coriander seeds are widely used in cooking, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Latin American cuisines, where they add depth and complexity to a variety of dishes. They are often toasted and ground to release their aromatic oils before being used as a spice in curries, stews, soups, marinades, and spice blends such as garam masala. Coriander seeds are also commonly used as a pickling spice and are an essential ingredient in many types of sausages and cured meats. Additionally, coriander seeds are valued for their potential health benefits and have been used in traditional medicine to aid digestion, reduce inflammation, and promote overall wellness.
