With its parsley-like leaves, cilantro has a powerful, unmistakable flavor. Some love it, others hate it: this aromatic herb leaves no one indifferent!

A staple of Asian and Oriental cuisine, it lends an exotic flavor to every dish.

This aromatic herb is a powerful antioxidant. It is renowned for stimulating the appetite, but also for its digestive, toning, antibacterial and detoxifying benefits.

How can cilantro be associated?

Cilantro goes well in salads, fish dishes, soups, curries, stews and tagines.

How do you cook cilantro?

Cilantro is widely used in Indian, Asian, Oriental and South American cuisine. It flavors fish, meat and poultry dishes, and goes very well with lemon and ginger. Best eaten raw, it loses its aroma when cooked.

It can be found in such well-known dishes as massalé in Africa, curry in India, Bo bun in Vietnam and ceviche in Peru.

The more daring will even dare to try it in sweet recipes, where it goes well with coconut milk or pineapple.

Our tips for successfully growing your cilantro

Cilantro is a fragile plant with flexible stems. Avoid handling it too much to prevent it from lying down.

Wait 3-4 weeks before harvesting (approx. 15 cm high).

Cut off the oldest outer stems, leaving the heart intact. Avoid cutting only the leaves, leaving the stem, as this reduces growth. Never harvest more than a third of the plant.

Cilantro has a short cycle and can flower quickly. The appearance of a large, rigid stem is synonymous with going to seed. Cut this stem to preserve flavour and leaf production.

Questions ?

Feel free to consult our FAQ for more information!

What is the composition of a Lingot®?

Lingots® are patented 100% biodegradable and compostable refills.

They are guaranteed GMO-free and pesticide-free.

The Lingot® contains:

- a natural soiless media adapted to hydroponics

- pre-sown organic seeds

- essential nutrients

The substrate is made of coconut fibers (peatless). This plant-based material is a renewable resources. The honeycombed texture of Lingot® enables optimal rooting and oxygenation, which guarantees a fast and healthy growth of your plants.

The majority of the seeds we use are certified organic, some are untreated (to know which one, look at the description of each Lingot®).

The nutrients integrated in the substrate are made of minerals and elements essential for growth and assimilated directly by plants. They are dosed precisely so that the plant uses them entirely during its life cycle.

How long does it take for my plants to grow? How long do I have to wait before the first harvest?

Thanks to the Véritable® garden technology, plants grow 2 to 3 times faster than in a garden. Some plants can be harvested from 3 weeks.

The speed of growth depends on the species and the temperature of your room.

For germination and growth time, refer to the Lingot® packaging, or visit the Lingot® page on our online shop.

What is the lifespan of a Véritable® Lingot® once planted?

Once planted, a Lingot® enables you to harvest your herbs generously for 4 to 6 months. Indeed, after each harvest your plant grows back!

The duration of a Lingot® depends on each species and how you harvest.

To know the life cycle of each Lingot® refer to the packaging of the Lingot®, or visit the Lingot® page on our online shop.

After 4 to 6 months, depending on its condition, you can compost your plant, or transplant outdoors.

My cilantro Lingot® did not sprout, what can I do ?

In spite of the performances of our apparatuses and the care which we bring to the manufacture of Lingots®, it can arrive that certain seeds do not develop correctly because they are living products. It should be known that the natural rate of germination of seeds varies between 65 and 95%. It is thus impossible for us to guarantee you a germination at 100%. However, we voluntarily planted more seeds than it is necessary in each Lingot® in order to obtain a good proportion of plants which arrive at maturity.

To ensure you a maximum satisfaction, we offer a guarantee "satisfied or exchanged" on all our Lingots®. To know more about it, contact our Customer Service and consult our General Terms and Conditions.
