Fragrant • Flavorful • Colorful
Cilantro may have been one of the first herbs used in culinary history, dating as far back as 5000 BC. The fragrant herb grows wild in Western Asia and Southern Europe. Today, it’s used to add a bright flavor that is both citrusy and parsley-like to dishes worldwide. Cilantro pairs well with onion and lime peel.
Like many culinary herbs, cilantro has been used throughout history to support health. Studies show that cilantro may support several aspects of wellbeing, including a healthy brain, mood, and blood sugar.(1)
