About Fresh cilantro
Fresh cilantro, also known as coriander leaves, is a fragrant herb widely used in cuisines around the world, including Mexican, Indian, Thai, and Middle Eastern dishes. Originating from the Mediterranean and Southwest Asia, cilantro is prized for its bright, citrusy flavor that enhances soups, salsas, curries, and salads. Nutritionally, cilantro is low in calories and rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, C, and K, as well as essential minerals like potassium and manganese. These nutrients support immune health, bone strength, and cardiovascular function. It’s also a good source of dietary fiber and has compounds believed to aid digestion and detoxification. However, some individuals may have a genetic predisposition that makes cilantro taste soapy. Fresh cilantro is highly perishable, so it’s best used shortly after purchase for optimal flavor and health benefits. This versatile herb not only elevates dishes but also contributes to a wholesome diet.
