Don’t toss coriander stems, they’re packed with nutrients

CITY (Lord Media): Coriander stems, often discarded, are a treasure trove of nutrition and flavor, say medical experts. Rich in vitamins A, C, K, and fiber, these stems offer significant health benefits.

Incorporating coriander stems into curries, soups, broths, lentils, vegetables, meats, and marinades can enhance the taste of these dishes. Besides flavor, they help control high blood pressure.

Instead of discarding, coriander stems can be added to chutneys and yogurt raita, making them thicker and more aromatic.

If there’s an excess of coriander stems, they can be washed, dried, and stored in the freezer for future use. These stems remain fresh for several weeks.
