Corriander (cilantro) is a universal balancer of the three doshas, its taste is bitter and pungent. It is a good household remedy for many heated digestive disorders (acid indigestion) due to an overstimulated digestive fire.  This is why hot foods are garnished with cilantro and almost every blend of masala powder contains ground coriander seeds. Coriander aids in the absorption of food.  It is used to heal skin rashes, inflammations and a host of ailments caused by the aggravation of the body's fire element.

Coriander imparts a bold and tangy citrus flavor to many dishes.  The flavor works well with beets, onions, potatoes.  It gives character to eggs, cheeses, chili sauces and guacamole.  Use it in marinades, tomato salads, soups, stews and curries.
