Coriander Flavor Profile
 
Citrusy and Fresh:
Coriander seeds have a distinctly citrusy aroma and flavor, with hints of orange or lemon peel.
Earthy and Nutty:
They offer a mild earthiness with a slightly nutty undertone, which adds depth without overpowering other ingredients.
Mildly Sweet:
A soft, subtle sweetness balances the brightness, making it versatile for both sweet and savory applications.
This balanced profile of bright citrus, gentle earthiness, and light sweetness makes coriander a staple in cuisines ranging from Indian curries to Middle Eastern spice blends and even baked goods.
