Cilantro (fresh coriander)

Also called: Kabsaro caleen (Soomaali) · Coriandre fraîche (Français) · كزبرة خضراء (العربية)

What to look for

Choose bunches with bright green, perky leaves and a fresh, sharp smell; skip any that are yellowing, wilted or slimy at the stems. The tender stems have plenty of flavour, so chop them in with the leaves.
