Description

Ground coriander is the powder resulting from grinding the dried seeds of the coriander plant (Coriandrum sativum), an aromatic herb widely used in international cuisine. This ingredient has a citrusy and warm aroma, with a slightly spicy and sweet flavor, which adds a distinctive touch to various culinary preparations.

Ground coriander comes from a plant native to the Mediterranean region and Southwest Asia, although today it is cultivated in many parts of the world. In cooking, it is especially popular in recipes from Latin America, India, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.

From a nutritional point of view, ground coriander stands out for its antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. In addition, it contains vitamins such as C and K, as well as minerals like calcium, iron, and magnesium, which contribute to a healthy diet.

In the Hispanic American world, ground coriander is also known as ground cilantro seeds or simply coriander powder. It is a fundamental ingredient for seasoning curries, stews, marinades, sauces, and many traditional recipes, adding flavor and depth to dishes.
