Additional Information
Cilantro is one of the easiest to grow, most recognizable fresh herbs. The foliage is called Cilantro, while the edible seed is known as Coriander.  You can direct sow seed into garden every two weeks for a continuous supply of fresh leaves. Like the leaves and seeds, the flowers are also edible. Use them raw because the flavor fades quickly when cooked. Sprinkle to taste on salads, bean dishes, chicken, and spicy Southwestern dishes. For fresh use in the home, harvest leaves as required. For preserving, harvest at peak maturity 50-60 days . For distilling, harvest when blooms are just beginning to appear. At this point, the leaves contain the highest level of essential oils. Drying is the most common way to preserve herbs. Hang small bunches from the ceiling in a dry, dark location with good ventilation. Drying usually takes between 1-2 weeks.
