About The Spice
Coriander is the dried seed or fruit of the Coriandrum sativum plant, which belongs to the parsley family. Coriander seeds are native to Southern Europe and the Mediterranean region. Cilantro is the leaf of this same coriander plant and yet surprisingly, its flavor is vastly different from that of coriander.More Information
