Organic Herbs – Coriander (25g) Australia

Coriander, also known as cilantro in its leafy form, traces its roots to the Mediterranean and Middle East, where it has been celebrated for its bright, citrusy flavour and versatility in both fresh and dried forms. Its seeds offer warm, nutty undertones, while the leaves provide a vibrant, herbaceous kick to dishes worldwide.

Packed with vitamin K, coriander supports bone health and proper blood clotting. Its leaves are also rich in antioxidants like quercetin, which help combat oxidative stress, and the seeds contain essential oils that may aid digestion and reduce inflammation.

Barry’s tips: Use fresh coriander leaves to garnish curries, tacos, or soups for a burst of freshness. Toast the seeds lightly to release their aroma, then grind them to flavour roasted vegetables or spice blends like garam masala.
