Sawtooth - The Magic Appetizer!

It smells great. And when added to your dish,  it will get an aroma so heavenly, you will drool all the way to the dining table. A little spiky, a little pricky and very, very aromatic, this is Sawtooth, one of my most favorite herbs!


Sawtooth, also known as Thorny/Pricky Coriander, Bar Dhaniya, Ban Dhaniya, Pak Chi Pharang and Ngo Gai


Found across North east India, I have never seen it anywhere else outside the region. In fact, even in the north east, it's a rare sight these days. Is this because of the changing climate?
