  • Réussir le semis

    Son semis est facile. La germination intervient en général en deux semaines. Semez les graines dans un mélange léger sous abri et à une température d’environ 20°C [minium 12°C]. Dès que les plants ont atteint 4 à 5 cm, vous pourrez les repiquer en place. Sa culture n’est pas très facile car elle demande beaucoup de chaleur pour prospérer.

  • Harvest

    The leaves of the  mexican cilantro  tend to be  quite tough. Choose the youngest and remove the main rib. You can use it raw  to flavor a salad or with meat or fish. They are also used  cooked  as an infusion in broth or meat in sauce. In Southeast Asia and South America, it is used in particular for  soften the flavor of strong meats. The flavor is essentially the same as that of the  traditional coriander  but more pronounced. The  leaves dry very well  and  keep their color after drying. So you can enjoy it during the winter.
