Affected by the recent Typhoon Kemi, vegetable prices have skyrocketed in recent days. The price of coriander, which is used to garnish dishes, has soared from 140 yuan per catty before the typhoon to 600 yuan per catty, a several-fold increase. Especially since the Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, for those who love cilantro, there is no need to worry about cilantro being too expensive. You can choose substitutes and add them to dishes, or make them into barbecue-flavored dipping sauces, which are healthy and burden-free. Coriander has a special smell. Some people like to use it in cooking to enhance the flavor of the dish, while others avoid it because of its pungent smell. In fact, the special smell of coriander comes from the "aldehyde substance - decenal", which smells a bit like stinky soap, so some people find it difficult to accept. Despite this, people who love fragrant tea have a special fondness for it. In European and American cuisines, coriander seeds are often used as a spice for marinating meat and sausages, while Asians generally add coriander to hot soups to enhance the flavor. In fact, scented tea has many nutritional values, including dietary fiber (promoting intestinal peristalsis), vitamin A (maintaining vision in the dark), vitamin C (antioxidant effect), calcium (maintaining bone health), etc. However, it should be noted that coriander contains high potassium ions, so kidney patients should not eat too much of it and must eat it in moderation. Coriander, native to the eastern Mediterranean, was eaten by the Greeks as early as 2000 BC and is still commonly found in Asian, Mediterranean and Mexican cuisines. The seasoning for Mid-Autumn barbecue should be healthy and less burdensome. If you like the taste of spices, you can try spicy coriander olive oil. Olives and fresh coriander are squeezed while the oil is extracted. The spicy coriander exudes a fresh lemon scent, which is suitable for seasoning barbecue and grilled vegetables, such as grilled zucchini stuffed with meat, or making yogurt sauce, barbecue dipping sauce, hot pot dipping sauce, etc. It is recommended to pair olive oil with coriander flavor with fruit vinegar, following the golden ratio of 3:1. Mix well and sprinkle some salt to make a bowl of flavorful, healthy and low-calorie vinaigrette. It can be paired with lettuce and fruit, and can be used as a dipping sauce for grilled food. It is a delicious, ready-to-eat and versatile sauce for the Mid-Autumn barbecue table. |
