Ground Coriander

Ground coriander is the finely milled form of dried coriander seeds from the coriander plant (Coriandrum sativum). It delivers a warm, citrusy, and gently sweet aroma with nutty undertones, and is a foundational spice across Indian, Middle Eastern, North African, and Latin American cuisines. It appears in blends like garam masala, curry powder, ras el hanout, and adobo-style seasonings.

For the fullest flavor, briefly toast whole seeds and grind just before use, or bloom pre-ground coriander in hot oil or butter to unlock its volatile oils. Because these aromas dissipate over time, store airtight away from light and heat, and refresh older jars with a quick bloom or by supplementing with freshly ground seed.
