Coriandrum sativum

Coriander, also called Kishnish, is a spice made from the round, yellow-brown seeds of the coriander plant (Coriandrum sativum).

Coriander seeds have a pleasant lemon flavor and floral aroma. The flavor goes very well with cumin and many recipes include equal amounts of both spices. The leaves of the plant and the ripe seeds have a completely different taste and cannot be substituted for each other.

Ground seeds are sometimes used for pickling and brining. They are used in mutton and pork dishes and preserves, combining them with onions, garlic, black pepper and oregano. Ground coriander is used as a spice in dishes such as curries and in baked goods. Some sweets, gingerbread, liqueurs, etc. are flavored with ground coriander.
