minus-squarePunnyName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up24·3 years agoCilantro. Fucking soapy-assed tasting bullshit. I want to like you, but genetics won’t let me.
minus-squareu/lukmly013 💾 (lemmy.sdf.org)@lemmy.sdf.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18arrow-down1·3 years agoIf like me you also didn’t know what “Cilantro” is, it’s Coriander.
minus-squarePunnyName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 years agoYeah, cilantro is the culinary term, where coriander is the botanical.
minus-squarecanthidium@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up5·3 years agoThis for sure. I have the soap gene as well. I love Mexican food, and it’s nigh impossible to find much traditional Mexican without cilantro.
minus-squareChe Banana@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up5arrow-down1·3 years agoHeads up: cooking cilantro should eliminate the soapy flavor. Also be aware many indian dishes contain cilantro/coriander
minus-squarecanthidium@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 years agoOh yes I forgot about Indian. I have to be picky about where I go so I can avoid cilantro. Cooking does help a little bit the soap is still there for me. It’s really overwhelming in dishes to me.
minus-squareAA5B@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 years agoThat’s really unfortunate- it’s such a great taste
minus-squaretrashgirlfriend@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 years agoIs parsley related to Cilantro? I really really cannot stand parsley in anything, it is bitter and disgusting and mu workplace puts it in everything.
minus-squarecanthidium@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 years agoI’m the opposite. I pretty much sub out cilantro for parsley in every dish.
minus-squaretrashgirlfriend@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up4·3 years agoMaybe I need to try some cilantro to see if I am some sort of rare mutant.
minus-squarecanthidium@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·3 years agoYou have probably had it. It’s in tons of food. If you’ve ever had coriander, that is another name for cilantro.
minus-squarePunnyName@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 years agoIf you like cilantro, you’re normal. The soap gene is the mutant gene. Like blue eyes, or being able to process lactose (I have both).
