Coriander Seeds
Toasty and fragrant, coriander seeds come from the cilantro plant. These little spheres have a sweet, earthy, and citrusy aroma that is heightened by toasting gently before use. Often used in pickling, coriander is also a common ingredient in South Indian and North African cuisine. Try these in your next batch of lentil soup!
