Eryngium foetidum, also known as culantro, is a tropical perennial herb in the Apiaceae family. It is native to Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America, but is now cultivated worldwide. It is commonly used as a culinary herb in many countries, including the Caribbean, Central and South America, and parts of Asia. It is often used as a substitute for coriander leaves, but has a stronger taste and dries well, making it valuable in the dried herb industry. In traditional medicine, it has been used to treat a variety of ailments such as burns, fevers, and stomachaches. Scientific studies have also shown potential for its use as an anticonvulsant and anti-inflammatory. The leaves contain various compounds, including tannins, saponin, and flavonoids.
