She brought it because I have a recipe that called for it (for date chutney). Since then I have not been able to find it again. Two Indian shop owners have told me it is coriander but, if so, it isn't the same as our coriander. Because Indian words in English are transliterations, it may have a different spelling. (Penzey Spices sells a spice with a similar spelling, but it isn't Indian.) Does anyone have any information?
