描述
- Appearance: Culantro (Eryngium foetidum), also known as sawtooth coriander or long coriander, features long, narrow, lance-shaped leaves with serrated edges, resembling a larger version of cilantro but with a different growth pattern.
- Aroma and Flavor: It has a strong, pungent aroma and flavor similar to cilantro but more robust and lingering, often described as a blend between cilantro and parsley, with hints of citrus.
- Culinary Uses: Culantro is widely used in Caribbean, Latin American, and Southeast Asian cuisines for flavoring soups, stews, salsas, and curries. It's particularly valued in dishes where a strong cilantro flavor is desired but regular cilantro might wilt.
- Growing Habits: This herb is a perennial in tropical climates but often grown as an annual in temperate regions. It prefers partial shade to full sun and well-drained soil, and it's less susceptible to bolting than cilantro, providing a longer harvest period.
