Coriander

It is difficult to imagine cooking without the use of seasonings and spices. Basil, parsley, garlic and others can incredibly transform the taste and aroma of dishes. One of the most common spices is coriander. It was known back in Ancient Egypt, and today it is impossible to imagine Caucasian cuisine without this greenery.

Before planting, it is necessary to prepare the soil. To do this, form a bed in the standard way, and add peat and humus while digging. Coriander seeds do not require pre-soaking. They are planted at a distance of 15 cm and deepened by approximately 2 cm.

Fans of spicy greens plant seeds every two weeks, starting from the first sowing, throughout the summer. Of course, you can buy coriander, but greens grown with your own hands certainly do not contain harmful nitrates and can be picked at any time. Caring for the plant involves regular loosening, weeding and watering. Leaves picked before budding are used for drying. When dried, coriander is stored well in an ordinary glass jar with a tightly closed lid.
