Tips to Make Perfect Coriander Powder

Try to use good-quality coriander seeds.
Dry roast them on medium-low heat by stirring at regular intervals to avoid burning and to bring out the best flavors.
Make sure to cool the roasted coriander seeds completely before grinding else seeds will release moisture and reduce the shelf life.
Store ground coriander powder in a clean, dry and airtight glass container for longer shelf life.
