Egyptian Coriander Seeds

Egyptian coriander (Coriandrum sativum) from Fayoum is supplied as whole seeds and powder. Coriander seed is bought on a combination of aroma, seed size and cleanliness, and Egyptian material is well established in international blending and grinding operations.

Whole seed keeps its aroma considerably longer than ground coriander and is the preferred form wherever the buyer grinds close to use. Powder is supplied where the process requires it. Seed size is worth specifying, since it affects both grinding behaviour and appearance in whole-seed applications.

Applications include spice blends and curry powder manufacture, meat, sausage and convenience-food production, bakery and brewing, pickling, and botanical extraction for flavour and fragrance. Coriander is a dense seed, so a container reaches its weight limit with volume to spare — the opposite constraint to leaf herbs, and a reason mixed containers often cost less per kilogram than separate shipments.

Fayoum's irrigated season and dry harvest window allow the crop to be dried quickly, and the material passes a cleaning sequence that removes stalk, chaff, soil, stones and off-size seed. Each shipment carries a certificate of analysis for the lot supplied. Specifications are available upon request and can be tailored to buyer requirements, including purity grade, seed size and packing. We ship FOB Alexandria with the complete export documentation set.
