What is Coriander?

Before we get to this super easy, non-recipe pork tenderloin, I’d like to address coriander seed. 

Coriander is the dried seed or fruit of the Coriandrum sativum plant, which belongs to the parsley family.

Cilantro is the leaf of this same plant and surprisingly, its flavor is vastly different from that of coriander. Cilantro has a complex but delicate flavor with a hint of pepper, mint and lemon. While Coriander seed has a sweet, aromatic taste with a touch of citrus.

If you’ve never cooked with the seed, you’re missing out on a treat. And just imagine that sweet aromatic and a touch of citrus wrapped around a pork tenderloin which has been slathered with Dijon Mustard and baked into bliss.
