Steenberg Organic Ground Coriander, 43g

Organic coriander powder (43g in a glass jar), is one of the core spices for any kitchen cupboard with its mild lemony flavour. When ripe, organic coriander seeds have a distinctive sweet lemony flavour that is popular in Indian cooking, as well as in German cooking for pickling, breads and beer.

The coriander seeds are small and almost spherical, 5mm in diameter and have 12 characteristic ribs that run lengthways down these spheres. They fall into 2 categories - the Asia Minor seeds are light-tan to pale-brown and have a lemony aroma and taste; the Indian seeds are smaller, often darker brown, and taste less of citrus and more sage-like and herby in flavour.

Toasting them accentuates the citrus notes, plus adds a certain nuttiness to their character. Rub coriander powder into pork or ham for some simple added flavour, or create your own rub from coriander, pepper, salt and maybe some honey for a simple but wonderful glaze.
