Hi twinkle toes - good question - hope this helps to illuminate!
People either love Cilantro or hate it. You may know Cilantro from its seeds, Coriander. Some people think that Cilantro leaves are soapy tasting and that the immature seeds can have quite an odor, "like bed bugs," or "burned rubber!" However I love Cilantro and particularly its citrus, biting tang, and can't imagine a spicy, Mexican salsa without this perky addition. Cilantro is not native to Latin American cuisine but now plays an important role, bringing its distinctive flavor to so many dishes such as ceviche, the light and refreshing acid cooked fish dish, and many South American and Latin American sauces and stews.
Hi,
Iv'e never heard of Cilantro, where to get it?
