Coriander seeds are the dried seeds of the coriander plant (Coriandrum sativum), which is
a member of the parsley family. They are tiny, round, and light brown in color, with vertical
ridges along their surface. Coriander seeds have a warm, citrusy flavor with a hint of
sweetness and a slightly spicy undertone. They are widely used in various cuisines around
the world, particularly in Indian, Middle Eastern, and Latin American dishes.
