Is it Cilantro, Mexican Parsley, or Coriander? |
|
|
When thumbing through cookbooks you will often times run across
recipes calling for cilantro, Mexican parsley and sometimes even
coriander. Have you ever wondered what they are? Are they all
the same? The answer is yes they are all the same. Cilantro is a
pungent delightfully citrusy herb that resembles parsley in
appearance.
This bright green herb comes from the coriander plant. The
leaves and stems are used to make cilantro and the seeds are
dried and ground to make the bottled spice coriander.
You will often times find cilantro in the produce section of
your grocery |
|
|
|
store tied in bundles much the same way as parsley.
The leaves are slightly larger than parsley leaves and the aroma
is much more aromatic.
Common uses for cilantro are in dips, salsas, salad dressings
and sauces. You can even find it in some Chinese recipes being
referred to as Chinese parsley.
If you are looking for a way to use cilantro for dinner tonight
here is a quick and easy salsa solution where cilantro, Mexican
parsley, or coriander is your primary spice.
Mix in a small bowl chopped and seeded tomatoes, chopped onion,
chopped peppers (heat level of |
|
your choosing), and cilantro.
This makes a refreshing light Pico de Gallo type salsa that is
great as a salad topper or dip for tortilla chips.
