Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is an annual herb in the family Apiaceae. The dry fruits are known as coriander or coriandi seeds. In India they are called dhania. The word coriander in food preparation may refer solely to these seeds (as a spice), rather than to the plant itself. The seeds have a lemony citrus flavour when crushed, due to terpenes linalool and pinene. It is described as warm, nutty, spicy, and orange-flavored.

A study found both the leaves and seed to contain antioxidants, but the leaves were found to have a stronger effect
