1. 1

   Fresh cilantro resembles flat-leaf parsley and for this reason is sometimes labeled Chinese parsley. It is also called fresh coriander. Cilantro finds its way into Mexican, Southwestern, and Asian cooking, as well as many other dishes. Its distinctive, pungent flavor is easy to discern in salsas and other uncooked preparations, although it is less powerful when cooked. Cilantro is rarely sold dried and should not be confused with coriander seeds, which impart a very different flavor.
