Parsley-like in appearance, cilantro will add a refreshing, clean flavor to all of your dishes. Cilantro is derived from the leaf of the coriander plant, although these two spices do not taste the same and are not interchangeable. The flavor of cilantro is often described as a mixture of citrus and parsley, but with a bite. Cilantro is one of the oldest known and most popular herbs and is commonly used in Indian, Mediterranean, and Mexican cuisine.
Rich in natural antioxidants, dehydrated cilantro retains many of the same nutritional benefits as its fresh counterpart. Cilantro is also rich in vitamins, essential oils, and dietary fiber and can help reduce "bad" cholesterol levels.
The fresh, slightly bitter flavor of cilantro is a great addition to salsas, soups, and vegetable dishes. You can also use this spice in chutney, curry, and rice dishes.
