Coriander Recipe FAQs

What is coriander?

Coriander is a herb native to the Mediterranean area. Its leaves and its seeds can be used in cooking to add a distinctively pungent flavour.

What does coriander taste like?

Coriander has a zingy tartness, not unlike a citrus fruit. It is more pungent, however, which some people interpret as being slightly soapy.

What can I use instead of coriander?

If you are considering cilantro vs coriander in your cooking, then the first thing to know is that they’re different names for the same herb. You can use either. If you have neither, then tarragon or basil make for reasonable substitutes. Use a blend of them if you can’t track down any coriander.

How to grow coriander?

Coriander grows well in south-facing conditions in Ireland. What you need is free-draining, gritty soil because this Mediterranean herb cannot stand in waterlogged soil. Grow it in a pot in your kitchen by the window to have convenient access to it when cooking.

What is the best way to eat coriander?

Cooked or raw, the best way to eat coriander is without the stalks or, at least, the lower parts of them, which are more bitter and chewy. If you’re preparing coriander seeds for a curry or similar dish, then crush them in a pestle and mortar first, or they can be overpowering when bitten into.
