Coriander, also known as cilantro or Chinese parsley, is a versatile herb originating from the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern regions, now popular worldwide. The plant produces fresh, green leaves and small seeds, both widely used in cooking to add a bright, citrusy flavor. Coriander is common in Indian, Mexican, and Southeast Asian cuisines, offering both culinary and health benefits. Packed with antioxidants, vitamins A, C, and K, and essential minerals like potassium and manganese, coriander supports immune health, reduces inflammation, and aids digestion. Its seeds are known for their antimicrobial and cholesterol-lowering properties. Low in calories and free of fat, coriander can be a healthy addition to most dishes. However, some people may have an aversion to its taste due to genetic factors, and excessive consumption should be moderated to avoid potential allergic reactions or sensitivity.
