The Gracious Elizabeth sent:

The Making of Stuffed Eggs
Andalusian p. A-24

Take as many eggs as you like, and boil them whole in hot water; put them
in cold water and split them in half with a thread. Take the yolks aside
and pound cilantro and put in onion juice, pepper and coriander, and beat
all this together with murri, oil and salt and knead the yolks with this
until it forms a dough. Then stuff the whites with this and fasten it
together, insert a small stick into each egg, and sprinkle them with
pepper, God willing.

Now for my question:

This is the first time I have seen cilantro mentioned on the list.  Was this a 
period spice used commonly?

The ever Curious,
Murkial
