I know that's how we distinguish it...but also that most of the rest of the world doesn't. Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 27/04/2010 03:35:40 PM
I like the seeds.


It wasn't clear to me in the article, since they reference coriander as well, but seemed pretty focused on the leaves (which as you say, we don't call coriander). But since a New Zealander and Oxford were thrown into the mix, I thought they must be using the two words interchangeably, even though it seemed to have an American focus and was published in the NYT.

Or I could just be overthinking things

Indeed. I was confused for a while about why the article was calling the leaves something different. Rebekah - 27/04/2010 04:37:06 PM 382 Views
