Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Tell us something.: I'm a fiddler and, latterly, a fluter. I love the flute. I wish I'd always played it. I love the whistle as well. I'm blessed in having really lovely instruments for all of my musical interests.

Just checking (again) ... that'd be coriander, right?

I don't know how you keep track of what's your herbs and what's your spices. Yes, coriander if we must. But not under my roof.

Simple:

The herb is "coriander" and is delicious, especially as a garnish - on a lightly spiced dish, for instance.
The spice is "coriander" and is used in spiced dishes.

It's really very simple. :D

Seasoning is salt. That's it.
Spices are seeds, flowerets (like star anise) and the like.
Herbs are stems and leaves.

A question asked in innocence (honest) - is "flowerets" an American term for "florets"? Oh ... except that would still leave me confused, as star anise doesn't consists of florets ... :-?

Ah, but pepper is a spice. So that is spicing.

Not particularly. Might be regional.
