Whole coriander is typically used in curries, and is usually ground or crushed before use. For best effect, you can "toast" the coriander first (see below).
Grind immediately before use for maximum freshness. Whole spices keep their flavour for longer than ground spices, because once a spice is ground, the natural oils in the spice that are responsible for the flavour are exposed to the air. So it's desirable to them whole for as long as possible!
