The Variety

Coriander Seeds are actually the fruit of Coriandrum sativum, in the same family as carrot, cumin, celery, caraway and parsley.

All parts of the plant are edible, but most commonly know for its fruit as a spice and leaves as a herb.

For Your Appreciation

Coriander has a wonderful orangey bite when freshly ground and combines well mixed with black or white peppercorns.
