Cilantro is the delicate, young leaf of the coriander plant, or Coriandrum sativum, which belongs to the parsley family. The coriander plant produces both an herb and a spice – cilantro, the plant’s leaves, are used as an herb, while coriander, the plant’s seeds, are used as a spice.
Cilantro is used often in Middle Eastern, Mexican, and Asian cuisine. Its bright, fresh flavor is a wonderful complement to spicy ingredients or rich flavors such as coconut milk.
The use of cilantro can be traced back to 5000 B.C. It is thought to be one of the world's oldest used herbs, as it is mentioned in the Old Testament of the Bible and was also cultivated by the ancient Egyptians.
