Cilantro is the lacy leaf of the coriander plant.  Coriander seeds, also a popular spice, are produced by the leaves once they mature and dry.  The plant cannot be used for both, and must be harvested as either Cilantro or Coriander.

A common ingredient in salsa, use also in pestos, sauces, soups, egg dishes, guacamole, and dressings.  Pairs well with seafood and poultry.  Sprinkle on your salad or sandwich to add its aromatic flavor. [Cilantro]

Dedicated to the Greek goddess Persephone, parsley was valued for medicinal purposes and folk magic well before it was incorporated into European cuisine in the middle ages. Romans used it as a breath freshener and to prevent intoxication from wine.

Use it as edible garnish or add to stews, soups, sauces, dressings, eggs, potatoes and vegetables. Parsley is said to help prevent halitosis! [Parsley]
