Our delicious coriander microgreens, with their fresh, zesty, and slightly citrusy flavor, can complement a wide variety of dishes. They have a milder taste compared to mature coriander (cilantro), offering a subtle, delicate burst of flavour that's perfect for balancing or enhancing different recipes. Here are some ways to enjoy coriander microgreens:
Tacos and Burritos: Coriander microgreens are an excellent topping for tacos, especially those filled with grilled fish, shrimp, chicken, or beef. They add a refreshing contrast to the richness of the meats and the spiciness of salsa or hot sauces.
Salads: Toss them into green salads or grain bowls (like quinoa or couscous) for a pop of flavour and colour. They pair well with other fresh ingredients like avocado, cucumber, tomatoes, and bell peppers.
Salsas and Guacamole: Use them in fresh salsas or guacamole for an extra layer of flavour that enhances the traditional lime, tomato, and onion combination.
Soups: Garnish soups, especially light broths or cold soups like gazpacho, with coriander microgreens. They brighten up the dish and add a layer of herbaceousness without overpowering the flavors.
Egg Dishes: Sprinkle them on top of scrambled eggs, omelets, or egg sandwiches. Their slight citrusy flavour works beautifully with creamy, rich eggs.
Sandwiches and Wraps: Add them to sandwiches or wraps, especially those with ingredients like grilled chicken, hummus, or falafel. They add a fresh, green note that cuts through heavier elements.
Fish and Seafood: Coriander microgreens pair wonderfully with grilled or pan-seared fish, shrimp, or crab dishes, providing a refreshing contrast to the natural sweetness and richness of seafood.
Asian Cuisine: They can be used in Thai, Indian, or Vietnamese dishes, such as in curries, spring rolls, or as a garnish for pho or stir-fried noodles, where the bright citrusy flavor complements the complex spices.
Smoothies: For an herbal twist, blend coriander microgreens into green smoothies with fruits like pineapple, mango, or citrus.
Cheese Plates: Pair them with fresh cheeses, like goat cheese, ricotta, or feta, where their freshness and slight tang add balance to the creamy and salty flavours.
Coriander microgreens' bright, herbaceous flavour is versatile and can liven up both savory and slightly sweet dishes. They work especially well in fresh, vibrant meals where their taste can shine without being overwhelmed.
