Chopped coriander, frozen green — the herb that never wilts on you
Fresh coriander chopped and frozen within hours, holding its colour and aroma for the *ta'leya* that finishes an Egyptian dish.
No Egyptian kitchen finishes molokhia, koshari or a tagine without a ta'leya — garlic and coriander fried until fragrant. The problem with fresh coriander is that it wilts and yellows almost as soon as you buy it.
Montana's frozen chopped coriander fixes that. The herb is harvested, washed and chopped, then frozen within hours so it keeps the bright green colour and the sharp, citrusy aroma intact. You spoon out exactly what you need and the rest stays fresh in the freezer indefinitely — no slimy bunch forgotten at the back of the fridge.
It's a small product with an outsized role: the difference between a flat dish and one that smells like home. For our diaspora customers in particular, it brings the ta'leya to kitchens where fresh Egyptian coriander is hard to find.
