<h2><strong>How to learn to differentiate parsley and cilantro.</strong></h2>
When we go shopping with the naked eye, plants seem exactly the same, but the quickest and easiest way to differentiate them is that the aroma of the coriander leaves is much stronger and more intense than those of the parsley, I personally grab a twig, I press between the fingers and with the smellI distinguish which is each one.
But in the same way the coriander leaves are more rounded, their green color is lighter, with a strong flavor and a long stem. On the other hand, the leaves of the parsley end in a point and have a triangular shape, their color is a dark bright green, with short stems and a softer flavor.
<em>Both are used in the kitchen for salads, consommé, stews, meats and sauces, everything will depend on the taste of each person and what flavor they want to contribute to their meals.</em>
