Cilantro is thought to have been cultivated for nearly 5,000 years, dating back to ancient Egypt. Over time, it has traveled the globe and become a staple in cuisines from China and India to Mexico and Eastern Europe. It arrived in North America in the 17th century with English colonists. Even today, it remains widely used in soups, salsas, sauces, and as a garnish. In culturally vibrant countries like Canada, you can find cilantro in almost every restaurant.
While its delicate green leaves resemble carrot tops, few people realize that cilantro belongs to the carrot family—Apiaceae, a.k.a. Umbelliferae.
Interestingly, with its bold aroma and taste, cilantro sparks a distinctive love-hate relationship among foodies—making the “cilantro debate” a fun and never-ending topic.
