Sweet, fruity and slightly orange, our Indian coriander is aromatic. Coriander is an airy, fresh and discreet spice. It must be ground at the last moment to retain all its original flavours.

Note that the coriander seed, or spice, differs somewhat from the coriander leaf, which is also commercially available.

Coriander goes well with basil, cardamom, caraway, lemon, chilli, pepper and turmeric.

Our coriander comes from the Pays du Garnaguès, in the Aube region. Plant lover Sabine, our producer, cultivates this certified organic coriander with passion.

History

Plant & perfume

In the same family as carrots, parsley, fennel, cumin and celery, coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is a plant that produces a spice and an aromatic herb. The fresh leaves give the aromatic herb, the dried fruit the spice. It thrives in temperate regions.

Coriander is a delicate spice. It will happily stand alone in a dish or cold starter, but likes to be combined. Its slightly spicy, citrus and herbal notes can then be combined with its partners. Dry roasting accentuates its fragrance.
