There a Difference between Chinese parsley and cilantro

Question

Is there a difference between the two? It looks almost like cilantro?

Answer

It is just another name for cilantro AKA coriander, Latin name coriandrum sativum. There is another herb also labelled "Chinese Parsley," but it does NOT resemble cilantro. This herb is Salt Helioptrope, Latin name Heliotropium curassavicum.
