• Coriander is an annual herb native to regions spanning from southern Europe and northern Africa to southwestern Asia. Its use dates back to ancient civilizations, with the seeds being found in Egyptian tombs from as early as 1500 BC. It was highly regarded by the Greeks and Romans, who used it as a spice, a medicine, and in perfumes. The Romans also believed it had aphrodisiac properties. Coriander was brought to the Americas by European colonists and is now widely cultivated in many parts of the world.

• Coriander seeds come from the coriander plant, also known as cilantro. They are small, round, and light brown in color with a mild, sweet flavour and a slightly citrusy aroma. The seeds are commonly used as a spice in cooking, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Latin American cuisine.

   

• Coriander seeds are a rich source of antioxidants and have been used for their medicinal properties for centuries. They have been found to have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, and may help improve digestion and relieve gastrointestinal issues such as bloating and gas. Coriander seeds are also believed to have cholesterol-lowering effects and may help regulate blood sugar levels.

   

• Coriander seeds are typically harvested once the plant has produced its flowers and the seed heads have turned brown. They are then dried and can be used whole or ground into a powder. The ground powder is commonly used in spice blends such as curry powder and garam masala.

   

• In addition to its culinary and medicinal uses, coriander seeds are also used in the production of perfumes, soaps, and other personal care products due to their pleasant fragrance. The essential oil extracted from coriander seeds is also used in aromatherapy and has a relaxing effect on the mind and body. Coriander seeds are a versatile and widely used spice with a long history of culinary and medicinal uses.
