Let's see;  we've got some coriander, cumin, and onion...throw in some of 
those later period tomatoes, and we'll make some salsa!  Seriously, any 
recipes using the leaves of coriander (otherwise known as cilantro or chinese 
parsley) in period?  Also, is there any indication in the texts that the 
coriander called for is, in fact, the seed, and not the leaf?  I happen to 
love the stuff, and would be interested to see a recipe which uses the leaves.

Mr. Wizard, what happens when you combine pasta and antipasta?
