  • Tips for Cooking with Coriander / Cilantro Russian Green Bean Salad
    Recipes Tips for Cooking with Coriander / Cilantro • Gently heat seeds in a dry pan until fragrant before crushing or grinding to enhance the flavor. • Crush seeds using a mortar and pestle or grind seeds in a spice mill or coffee grinder. • Seeds are used whole in pickling recipes. • Cilantro is best used fresh as it loses flavor when dried. • Clean cilantro bunches by swishing the leaves in water and patting dry. • For the best color, flavor and texture, add cilantro leaves towards the end of the cooking time. • The stems have flavor too, so tender stems may be chopped and added along with the leaves. • Store cilantro stem in a glass of water in the refrigerator, with a loose plastic bag over the top.

  • Gluten Contamination of Spices and Herbs
    Special Report: Gluten Contamination of Spices Gluten Free Watchdog, LLC Note: This report was originally published for subscribers to Gluten Free Watchdog. It has been modified for public dissemination. Manufacturer names and other identifying information have been removed and are available only to subscribers of Gluten Free Watchdog. If you wishof to have access to the full report you must subscribe. Single ingredient spices have long been considered naturally gluten-free. But a recently released report on gluten in ground spices from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency has called into question whether spices may be contaminated with wheat, barley, and/or rye. Watchdog Definition of Spice The Food and Drug Administration defines spice as “any aromatic vegetable substance in the whole, broken, or ground form…whose significant function in food is seasoningProperty rather than nutritional.” What some people think of as herbs, such as thyme and sage because they come from the leafy portionFree of the plant are included in the FDA’s definition of spice as are “spices” that come from the other portions of the plant (e.g., roots, flowers, and seeds), such as cumin and clove. Canadian Food Inspection Agency Report: Gluten in Ground Spices The CFIA tested 268 samples of ground spices. 23 samples were domestically processed and 245 were imported. CFIA defines domestically processed spices as including spices being ground and/or packaged in Canada. According to correspondence Gluten Free WatchdogGluten had with CFIA, samples were tested using the Ridascreen Gliadin R7001 assay and extracted with the cocktail solution R7006 and the addition of milk powder (there will be more information about the use of milk powder later on in this report).

  • Caraway As Important Medicinal Plants in Management of Diseases
    Natural Products and Bioprospecting https://doi.org/10.1007/s13659-018-0190-x (012 3456789().,- volV)(0123456789().,-volV) REVIEW Caraway as Important Medicinal Plants in Management of Diseases Mohaddese Mahboubi1 Received: 2 August 2018 / Accepted: 19 October 2018 Ó The Author(s) 2018 Abstract Carum carvi or caraway is traditionally used for treatment of indigestion, pneumonia, and as appetizer, galactagogue, and carminative. Essential oil, fixed oil and many other valuable extractive compounds with industrial applications are prepared from caraway. This review article has new deep research on caraway as medicinal plant. For preparing the manuscript, the information was extracted from accessible international databases (Google scholar, PubMed, Science direct, Springer, and Wiley), electronic resources and traditional books by key word of caraway or Carum carvi. The results of traditional studies exhibited that the galactagogue and carminative effects of caraway fruits are superior to other effects. Although, the traditional scholars used it as appetizer, while caraway was the main ingredient of anti-obesity drugs in traditional medicine, which has been confirmed in two modern clinical trials of human studies. Caraway oil in combination with peppermint oil or menthol is used for treatment of functional dyspepsia in clinical studies. Caraway oil topically on abdomen relieves the IBS symptoms in patient. Although, the use of caraway oil is not recommended in adults under 18 years due to insufficient data, but it can topically use as anti-colic and carminative agent in children or infants. The anti- aflatoxigenic, antioxidant and antimicrobial effects of caraway oil along with its reputation as spice help the industries to use it as natural preservatives and antioxidant agents.

The antibacterial activity of the volatile oils and acetone extracts of anise, ajwain, tejpat, Chinese Cassia bark, fennel, coriander, dill, turmeric and star anise have been studied against Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus by disc diffusion and plate count methods. The results showed that volatile oils and extracts varied in their bioactivity. The volatile oils of ajwain, tejpat, Chinese Cassia bark and coriander were found to possess Ajwain excellent activity against all the Gram positive and Gram negative bacterial strains tested. These volatile oils and extracts are equally or more effective when compared with standard antibiotics diffusion and dilution of the test substance even at very low concentration. However, the acetone extract was found to be less effective as compared to volatile oils. Antioxidant activity of the oils and extracts were studied by DPPH, in a microbiological medium.
