Coriander Ground 70g
Our Ground Coriander seed offers a warm, subtly citrusy, and slightly sweet flavour that is a cornerstone of spice cabinets worldwide. This versatile powder is essential for curries, stews, baking, and marinades, adding a fragrant, earthy depth that beautifully balances other spices.
This versatile spice builds flavour in a myriad of dishes:
Curries & Dals: A fundamental base for Indian, Thai, and Vietnamese curries, lentil dishes (dhal), and stews.
Marinades & Rubs: Combine with cumin, paprika, and garlic to create delicious rubs for chicken, fish, and roasted vegetables.
Baking & Desserts: Adds a warm, citrusy note to gingerbread, biscuits, and spiced cakes.
Pickling & Chutneys: A classic component in pickling brines and a key flavour in many chutneys and relishes.
Sausages & Burgers: A traditional spice in many sausage recipes and a great addition to burger patties for extra depth.
How to Use: For the most flavour, toast lightly in a dry pan before adding to your dish to awaken its aromatic oils. It can be added at the beginning of cooking to allow its flavour to meld and mellow.
Storage: Keep in an airtight container in a cool, dark, and dry place to protect its delicate citrus aroma.
