OCHI: Indian black pepper prices will remain bullish if the report of International Pepper Community (IPC), an inter-government association of major pepper producing countries, is any indication. IPC pegs the size of new pepper crop in India in the range of 45,000-48,000 tonne with very limited carryover stock. Indian pepper production was estimated at 55,000 tonne last year. However, the exporters say it could have fallen short by 5000 tonne.
Though pepper has started arriving in the interior markets, they are briskly consumed by the local traders. The market price is ruling at the record level of $8,700 a tonne. According to IPC, the consumers are waiting for coverage from any source as there has been a crunch in supplies from Vietnam, Brazil and Indonesia. Vietnam's crop is considered good and the new crop is expected to hit the market during early February. The light berries have started arriving already.
"Vietnam has started booking at rates $8,200 per tonne for January, which is about $600 lower than Indian prices. To sell at that rate, Indian prices in the local market will have to come down by at least Rs 40 a kg from the current level of Rs 510-520 a kg. I don't see such a possibility in the next few weeks," said Jojan Malayil, CEO of exporting firm Bafna Enterprises.
He said the Vietnam crop could be higher than 1.35 lakh tonne estimated for the last season. IPC says that given the stock position with grinders, traders and all connected agencies, it is certain that the demand will emanate during the first quarter of 2014 and the price strata will be maintained. If Vietnam gets an offtake of more than 10,000 tonne for the first three months, then the price line will not recede.
Of the 6,300 tonne seized by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) on complaints of mineral oil contamination from NCDEX warehouses, the agency has been releasing small quantities that have been found clean. "Till now, around 50 tonne has been released. Another over 100 tonne is due for release," an FSSAI officer in Kochi said. This could soften the prices a bit.

New turmeric crop to hit markets by week-end

The new turmeric crop is expected to arrive in Erode markets before the end of the week.

“Though growers did not get remunerative price for their produce last year following poor sales, they have raised turmeric in large tracts of land. Fresh Number 8 variety turmeric will arrive for sale in a day or two. Last year, due to the adverse weather conditions the area under turmeric declined. But many farmers sunk bore wells and cultivated turmeric to fetch a better price. If the fine variety arrives for sale, traders will quote a higher price,”said R.K.V. Ravishankar, President, Erode Turmeric Merchants Association.

On Thursday, farmers were hoping that prices will increase and at least 75 per cent of the produce on offer would be bought. So, they brought 2,500 bags. Traders also quoted higher price, though only medium and poor quality were on offer. Only 45 per cent of the offerings was bought.

A trader said that they have only local demand and have not yet received upcountry orders. So, buying is limited. Farmers said that stockists are having huge inventories with them and expect sales to increase. .

The hybrid variety increased by Rs 400 due to arrival of medium quality and other varieties were up by Rs 150-250 a quintal.

At the Erode Turmeric Merchants Association sales yard, the finger variety fetched Rs 4,506-5,969 a quintal; the root variety Rs 3,864-5,469.

Salem Hybrid: The finger variety was sold at Rs 5,489-6,459; the root variety Rs 4,703-5,617 a quintal. Of the 491 bags that arrived, 98 were sold.

At the Regulated Market Committee, the finger variety quoted Rs 5,619-6,099 and the root variety Rs 5,019-5,934. Of the 829 bags on offer, 753 were traded.

At the Erode Cooperative Marketing Society, the finger variety fetched Rs 5,038-6,139 and the root variety Rs 5,310-5,960. All the 493 bags put up for sale found takers.

At the Gobichettipalayam Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Society, the finger variety was sold at Rs 4,569-6,072; the root variety Rs 4,290-5,611. All the 92 bags were sold.

Coriander seed (Coriandrum sativum)-နံနံေစ့

Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) is an annual herb in the family Apiaceae. Coriander is native to southern Europe and North Africa to southwestern Asia. It is a soft, hairless plant growing to 50 centimetres (20 in) tall. The leaves are variable in shape, broadly lobed at the base of the plant, and slender and feathery higher on the flowering stems. The flowers are borne in small umbels, white or very pale pink, asymmetrical, with the petals pointing away from the center of the umbel longer (5–6 mm) than those pointing towards it (only 1–3 mm long). The fruit is a globular dry schizocarp 3–5 mm diameter.

The word derives from German “coriandrum”, in turn from Greek “κορίαννον” (koriannon).The earliest attested form of the word is the Mycenaean Greek ko-ri-ja-da-na (written in Linear bkoriadnon), similar to the name of Minos' daughter Ariadne, and it is plain how this might later evolve to koriannon or koriandron." syllabic script, reconstructed as

Uses

 All parts of the plant are edible, but the fresh leaves and the dried seeds are the parts most commonly used in cooking. Coriander is common in Middle Eastern, Central Asian, Mediterranean, Indian, South Asian, Mexican, Texan, Latin American, Chinese, African and Southeast Asian cuisine.

Leaves

The leaves are variously referred to as coriander leaves, Chinese parsley, cilantro (in the Americas, from the Spanish for the plant). Culantro is a cilantro "copycat," but locals are very adamant that it is a different plant from "foreign" cilantro.

The leaves have a different taste from the seeds, with citrus overtones. Some perceive an unpleasant "soapy" taste or a rank smell and avoid the leaves. The flavours have also been compared to those of the stink bug, and similar chemical groups are involved (aldehydes). Belief that aversion is genetically determined may arise from the known genetic variation in taste perception of the synthetic chemical phenylthiocarbamide; however, no specific link has been established between coriander and a bitter taste perception gene.

The fresh leaves are an ingredient in many South Asian foods (particularly chutneys), in Chinese dishes and in Mexican dishes, particularly in salsa and guacamole and as a garnish. Chopped coriander leaves are a garnish on cooked dishes such as dal and curries. As heat diminishes their flavor quickly, coriander leaves are often used raw or added to the dish immediately before serving. In Indian and Central Asian recipes, coriander leaves are used in large amounts and cooked until the flavor diminishes. The leaves spoil quickly when removed from the plant, and lose their aroma when dried or frozen.

Fresh coriander leaves, known as кинза (kinza) in Russian (from Georgian ქინძი), are often used in salads in Russia and other CIS countries.

Fruit

The dry fruits are known as coriander seeds, coriandi seeds, or, in South Africa, dhania. The word coriander in food preparation may refer solely to these seeds (as a spice), rather than to the plant itself. The seeds have a lemony citrus flavour when crushed, due to terpenes linaloolpinene. It is described as warm, nutty, spicy, and orange-flavored. and

It is commonly found both as whole dried seeds and in ground form. Seeds can be roasted or heated on a dry pan briefly before grinding to enhance and alter the aroma. Ground coriander seed loses flavor quickly in storage and is best ground fresh.

Coriander seed is a spice (Hindi name:  dhania), in garam masala and Indian curries, which often employ the ground fruits in generous amounts together with cumin. It acts as a thickener. Roasted coriander seeds, called dhana dal, are eaten as a snack. It is the main ingredient of the two south Indian dishes: sambhar (சாம்பார்) and rasam (இரசம்). Coriander seeds are boiled with water and drunk as indigenous medicine for colds.

Outside of Asia, coriander seed is used for pickling vegetables, and making sausages in Germany and South Africa (see boerewors). In Russia and Central Europe coriander seed is an occasional ingredient in rye bread as an alternative to caraway. Coriander seeds are used in European cuisine today, though they were more important in former centuries.^{[citation needed]}

Coriander seeds are used in brewing certain styles of beer, particularly some Belgian wheat beers. The coriander seeds are used with orange peel to add a citrus character.

Roots

 Coriander roots have a deeper, more intense flavor than the leaves. They are used in a variety of Asian cuisines. They are commonly used in Thai dishes, including soups and curry pastes.

History

Coriander grows wild over a wide area of the Near East and southern Europe, prompting the comment, "It is hard to define exactly where this plant is wild and where it only recently established itself." Fifteen desiccated mericarps were found in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B level of the Nahal Hemel Cave in Israel, which may be the oldest archeological find of coriander. About half a litre of coriander mericarps were recovered from the tomb of Tutankhamun, and because this plant does not grow wild in Egypt, Zohary and Hopf interpret this find as proof that coriander was cultivated by the ancient Egyptians. The Bible mentions coriander in Exodus 16:31: "And the house of Israel began to call its name Manna: and it was round like coriander seed, and its taste was like that of flat cakes made with honey."

Coriander seems to have been cultivated in Greece since at least the second millennium BC. One of the Linear B tablets recovered from Pylos refers to the species as being cultivated for the manufacture of perfumes, and it appears that it was used in two forms: as a spice for its seeds and as a herb for the flavor of its leaves. This appears to be confirmed by archaeological evidence from the same period: the large quantities of the species retrieved from an Early Bronze Age layer at Sitagroi in Macedonia could point to cultivation of the species at that time.

Coriander was brought to the British colonies in North America in 1670 and was one of the first spices cultivated by early settlers.

These herbs are used where they grow in much the same way as cilantro is used.

• Eryngium foetidum has a similar taste and is also known as culantro. Found in South America.^[10]
• Persicaria odorata, is commonly called Vietnamese coriander, or ram rau. The leaves have a similar odour and flavor to coriander. It is a member of the Polygonaceae, or Buckwheat Family. .^[11]

• Papaloquelite is one common name for Porophyllum ruderale subsp. macrocephalum, a member of the Compositae or Asteraceae, the Sunflower Family. This species is found growing wild from Texas to Argentina. .

Health effects & medicinal uses

Coriander, like many spices, contains antioxidants, which can delay or prevent the spoilage of food seasoned with this spice. A study found both the leaves and seed to contain antioxidants, but the leaves were found to have a stronger effect.

Chemicals derived from coriander leaves were found to have antibacterial activity against Salmonella choleraesuis, and this activity was found to be caused in part by these chemicals acting as nonionic surfactants.

Coriander has been used as a folk medicine for the relief of anxiety and insomnia in Iran. Experiments in mice support its use as an anxiolytic. Coriander seeds are used in traditional Indian medicine as a diuretic by boiling equal amounts of coriander seeds and cumin seeds, then cooling and consuming the resulting liquid. In holistic and traditional medicine, it is used as a carminative and as a digestive aid.

Coriander has been documented as a traditional treatment for diabetes. A study on mice found that coriander extract had both insulin-releasing and insulin-like activity.

Coriander seeds were found in a study on rats to have a significant hypolipidemic effect, Coriander (Coriandrum sativum) Loding.resulting in lowering of levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides, and increasing levels of high-density lipoprotein. This effect appeared to be caused by increasing synthesis of bile by the liver and increasing the breakdown of cholesterol into other compounds.
