I love cilantro. I agree that it tastes soapy, but cilantro and cumin are probably the two most important things that make Mexican food taste Mexican! The nearest, most authentic taqueria to me loads all their stuff with it....yum.....

cilantro + chopped onion + lime juice = very good topping for all sorts of things (from fajitas to indian food)

I don't mind a little cilantro, but in quantity it ruins the taste of entire dishes to me, with its nasty, soapy flavor.

I think it sucks. CPK puts it on their BBQ Chicken Pizza and I always order it without it.

Anyone ever smoke it? I wonder if you can smoke Cilantro 🙂

Soap tastes a lot like cilantro to me. I like it!

EAT MORE SOAP!

Indian food isn't Indian food unless it's topped off with Cilantro 🙂 Love it!

 

[Fausto]

Cilantro = good.

Yes. Pace Cilantro salsa is our current favorite salsa.

Wow. People really eat salsa out of a jar? :disgust:
I make mine or get it from a local mexican store/resturant. They make it fresh everyday. I look forward to Sundays. 49ers, fresh salsa and beer. 😀

Yea I read about that too in my searches on cilantro and genetics. So it would not be that far fetched that the same might be true for cilantro. I find the differences in people's opinion on it amazing. People either love it, or hate it. And, the people who love it can't understand why the people that hate it don't like it, and vice versa. It is such a vile taste to me that I am amazed that people can like it, so I am convinced that I do not taste it the same as they do.
