Key Benefits
- Highest Fibre Among Common Spices: At 41.9g fibre per 100g, coriander powder contributes significantly to digestive health, gut motility, and microbiome support — even in everyday cooking quantities.[1]
- Carminative and Digestive: Linalool and cineole in coriander reduce intestinal gas, relieve bloating, and support smooth digestion — particularly effective in combination with cumin.[2]
- Antioxidant-Rich: Quercetin, kaempferol, and caffeic acid derivatives scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative cellular damage.[2]
- Calcium and Bone Support: 709 mg calcium per 100g — meaningful for bone density and muscle function, especially in vegetarian diets.
- Culinary Versatility: Provides a mild, aromatic base that tones down the heat of chillies and balances the sharpness of ginger-garlic in masala bases.

How to Use
- Masala Base: Add 1–2 tsp to the onion-tomato masala while cooking — the fat extracts and carries linalool into the dish for maximum aroma.
- Dhania-Jeera Blend: Combine 2 parts coriander powder with 1 part cumin powder as a ready all-purpose masala base for most Indian curries.
- Sambar and Rasam: Essential in South Indian sambar powder; adds the characteristic earthy body to rasam.
- Chutneys: A pinch in green chutney or dry spice mixes rounds out the flavour profile.
- Marinades: Combine with turmeric and ginger-garlic for a classic North Indian marinade for paneer, vegetables, or protein.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between this and Dhaniya Powder 500g?
Both are certified organic coriander powder. The 100g pack is ideal for smaller households or those wanting to trial organic dhania powder. The Dhaniya Powder 500g is an economy size for households that use coriander powder as a daily staple — better value per gram for high-frequency users.
How do I know this is freshly milled?
Fresh coriander powder has a vivid citrus-floral aroma that fades over time. When you first open the pack, the scent should be bright and lively. If a coriander powder smells dusty or flat, it is past its prime. Dhatu packs shortly after milling without anti-caking agents — slight clumping in humid conditions is normal and not a quality defect.
Can I make my own coriander powder from whole seeds?
Yes — and homemade is always more aromatic. Dry-roast whole coriander seeds until fragrant (1–2 minutes), cool completely, then grind in a spice grinder. Use within 2–3 months for best aroma. Dhatu’s Organic Coriander Whole 200g is ideal for this purpose.
Is coriander powder gluten-free?
Yes. Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is naturally gluten-free. Dhatu’s facility processes no gluten-containing grains in the same space as spice milling, minimising cross-contamination risk. If you have coeliac disease, check the pack for current allergen declarations.
How long does coriander powder stay fresh?
Best within 6–12 months of the milling date for full aroma. Nutritional content (fibre, calcium, iron) remains stable much longer. Store in an airtight glass jar in a cool, dark cupboard. Use a dry spoon every time to prevent moisture ingress.
