It is used in a lot of Mexican cooking, Thai food, and Asian cooking. You'll find it near the parsley and the green onions. It comes in bunches and should be $.50 - $1.39 a bunch. You don't want to leave this ingredient out!

Its a leafy green herb also called coriander and is generally used in Asian and Mexican cuisine, though of course it can be used in others. And it tastes really good.
