Yeah, I got all pedantic there, didn't I? nossy Send a noteboard - 28/04/2010 01:18:58 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 :P

I think you're overthinking.:P I probably only got it because I kept nodding my head as I read. I really do not like cilantro, and maybe it's tied up to this. I can only eat it when it's with strong onions or something.

They're pretty different. Elaine - 27/04/2010 02:44:21 PM 380 Views
Cilantro = leaves, coriander = seeds. nossy - 27/04/2010 03:25:44 PM 360 Views
I know that's how we distinguish it...but also that most of the rest of the world doesn't. Sareitha Sedai - 27/04/2010 03:35:40 PM 379 Views
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 384 Views
