Description: Cilantro Leaves C/S is produced from the leaves of Coriandrum sativum, an annual herb native to the Mediterranean region and widely cultivated around the world. The plant grows with slender stems and finely divided, bright green leaves that are harvested during the leafy growth stage before flowering. Harvesting at this stage ensures well-formed leaves with consistent size, colour, and botanical character.
After harvesting, the leaves are cleaned to remove field debris and excess stems, then dried using controlled air or low-temperature methods to preserve their natural green colour and delicate leaf structure. Once dried, the material is cut and sifted to achieve a uniform particle size. This process produces a clean, stable product that maintains the natural appearance of the dried leaf while allowing for easy handling and blending.
The cut and sifted leaves display a light to medium green colour with a fine, leafy texture and minimal stem content. The uniform cut provides consistency in appearance and performance, making the product suitable for use in dry blends, formulations, and applications where evenly sized leafy material is required.
Uses: Cilantro Leaves C/S is used as a culinary herb in soups, sauces, stews, seasoning blends, and vegetable dishes. The cut and sifted form allows for easy incorporation into dry spice blends and prepared foods. It is also suitable for botanical craft projects, educational herb kits, and decorative applications where dried green leaf material is desired.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in a well-sealed container.
