Recipes for Coriander Seeds Substitutes

If you have most or all of the coriander seed substitutes I listed above, take advantage of their distinct flavor and aroma and similarity with coriander. You can turn these tried-and-tested substitutes for coriander into powder.
However, when making powdered spice from these herbs, make sure you only make what your recipe calls for because it will slowly lose its flavor intensity during storage.

Equipment

  • Frying Pan
  • Bowl
  • Mortar and pestle, blender, food processor, or spice or coffee grinder

Ingredients

Caraway, Fennel, and Cumin Seeds

  • 2 tablespoon Caraway seeds
  • 2 tablespoon Fennel seeds
  • 2 tablespoon Cumin seeds

Dried Parsley

Instructions

Caraway, Fennel, and Cumin Seeds

  • For these three seeds, here are the steps you need to take when turning them into powder:
  • Preheat your frying pan using a low-heat setting.
  • Place enough amount of the seeds in your hot pan and adjust the heat to a medium setting
  • Allow the seeds to toast for three to four minutes, making sure you stir them occasionally to avoid burning.
  • Once they look darker than their original color, remove the pan from the heat and transfer the toasted seeds to a bowl. I suggest you do a taste test of one of the seeds to check if it isn't bitter, indicating you over-toasted the seeds.
  • If everything seems good, transfer the toasted seeds to your mortar and pestle's mortar (bowl), spice grinder, or coffee grinder.
  • Grind them until you have a fine powder.
  • That's it! You're now ready to use the powder to add flavor to your dish, sauce, dip, or marinade.

Dried Parsley

  • Unlike the whole seeds, you no longer need to toast the dried parsley to bring out its aroma and full flavor. Thus, all you have to do is grind dried parsley using a mortar and pestle, coffee grinder, or coffee grinder until you have a fine powder.
