Dehydrated Coriander Leaves & Powder

Dehydrated Coriander Leaves & Powder

Coriander is one of the few herbs in our range we don’t cut down into a flake before drying. The leaf itself is already thin and small enough that a fresh coriander leaf, once dried, holds together as a discrete piece without needing to be sliced first — so what we ship as “whole dried” coriander is closer to the leaf’s natural size and shape than a flake product from a bulkier vegetable would be.

Storage Runs Differently Too

Most of our dehydrated vegetable lines specify storage below 20°C in a closed warehouse. Coriander’s storage guidance is simpler — normal room temperature, kept away from wet conditions — which reflects how stable the dried leaf is once moisture is removed, rather than any lesser quality standard. Buyers used to our other spec sheets shouldn’t read the absence of a temperature ceiling as a gap; it’s a genuine difference in how this particular product behaves in storage.

Two Forms

Whole dried leaves retain visible leaf structure and are the form most HoReCa kitchens and garnish-focused instant food producers ask for. Powder is milled fine for even distribution through spice and rice blends, sauces, pickles and chutneys, where a smoother texture and consistent flavour spread matter more than a visible leaf piece. There’s no fixed particle size on either form — both are processed to whatever the order specifies.

Processing

Fresh coriander leaves are inspected and cleaned on arrival, then dried under a controlled, low-temperature cycle to hold onto colour and the leaf’s characteristic citrus-forward aroma. Whole leaf batches are simply sorted and packed after drying; batches destined for powder are milled after drying rather than before, to avoid losing aromatic oils to oxidation during a longer pre-drying wait. Sterilisation (ETO or steam) is available on request for buyers who need it for their destination market.

Where It’s Used

Spice and rice blend manufacturers are the largest buyer category, using powder for even distribution and whole leaf for visible garnish blends. Instant food and snack producers, pickle and chutney manufacturers, and HoReCa kitchens round out the main use cases.
