Why love it
The pretty, lemony notes of coriander seed are perfect to layer with other citrus flavours. They both brighten and deepen buttery bakes.
Match with
Sweet fruit: blueberry, apple
Tart fruit: orange, lemon, quince
Spice & herb: cardamom, cumin, orange blossom, lemon thyme, ginger
Extract the flavour
For savoury cooking, the seeds are often toasted to bring out an earthy nuttiness, whereas for sweet you may want to use them raw to keep the floral delicacy. Choose according to the ingredient pairing.
