{"product_id":"koliandros-olokliros-akopos","title":"Whole Coriander – Coriandrum sativum","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhole Coriander\u003c\/strong\u003e (\u003cem\u003eCoriandrum sativum\u003c\/em\u003e) consists of whole dried coriander fruits, with a warm, citrusy and slightly sweet aromatic profile. Its form makes it suitable for curries, pickles, rubs, breads, legumes and spice blends. Proper use depends on taste, intensity and the specific recipe, not on general assumptions about all herbs or spices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIdentity and raw material\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe botanical name \u003cem\u003eCoriandrum sativum\u003c\/em\u003e helps distinguish this particular plant from other raw materials that may have a similar common name. With natural products, minor differences in color, size, aroma and texture from batch to batch are to be expected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eAroma and flavor\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts characteristic profile is warm, citrusy and slightly sweet. The intensity is affected by freshness, particle size and the length of time the product is exposed to air. For best results, open the package only as needed and use a clean, dry utensil.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePractical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt pairs well with curries, pickles, rubs, breads, legumes and spice blends. When trying a new recipe, start with a conservative amount and adjust after tasting. Strongly aromatic ingredients are easier to add gradually than to correct when too much has been used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhole and ground forms\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhole and ground products from the same plant do not behave exactly alike. The powder distributes immediately and has a larger surface area, while the whole form often releases its aromas more gradually and can be ground just before use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCombinations\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe best choice of complementary spices depends on the dish. In savory applications, build the blend around the main ingredient; in sweet preparations, pay attention to balance so that one strong aroma does not overpower vanilla, fruit or chocolate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a related option, you can also see \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/koliandro-trimmeno\"\u003eGround Coriander\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHandling\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf using a whole spice, light toasting may be used only when the recipe calls for it, taking care not to burn it. If using a powder, avoid inhaling it and do not sprinkle it from a great height over a steaming pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eStorage\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore tightly sealed in a dry, cool and dark place, away from direct sunlight, moisture and heat. Ground products usually lose their volatile aromas faster than whole ones, so keeping the package tightly closed is especially important.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePrecautions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the product in the amounts required for the culinary application or according to the package instructions.
