Cilantro is used in a variety of dishes from Mexican to Asian cuisine.  The word \u201ccilantro\u201d is actually Spanish for \u201ccoriander leaves\u201d.  Fresh coriander has a bold flavor that\u2019s often described as a fragrant mix of citrus and pepper. Dried coriander is very different in usage and taste, it has a piney flavor with hints of lemon and pepper.  It goes well in bean dips, rice, soups and homemade salsa.
