RE: In my little garden. Cilantro and Parsley

in Wednesday Walk27 days ago

I LOVE parsley, I swear I can add it to so many things and enjoy that so much! It has to be fresh though, I don't do dried parsley, lol.

Then there's cilantro, which I never even heard of until I believe I needed it for a falafel recipe if I'm remembering that correctly. It was then when I learned that cilantro has this special taste that part of the population thinks their eating soap when eating it.

I then understood why my boyfriend doesn't like my falafel, lol. It also made me think back to when we went for tapas at a great place, good quality food, where he said they didn't rinse their dishes very well because the food tasted like soap. They kindly replaced it but thinking about that incident later, it's just the fact that he thinks he tastes this when there's cilantro inside, which is not always mentioned :)

As you're growing your own cilantro, I wonder, is it normal to always have the idea that the leaves are a bit unfresh when buying it? Every time I buy it, it's from that day in the supermarket but it never feels or smells as fresh as parsley for example. I always have the feeling that I'm buying older cilantro, lol. Maybe that's just the way cilantro is, I'm curious.

Hope you're doing good!
