Cilantro

We can never grow enough of this herb to satisfy our cravings!  Most people perceive the taste of coriander as a tart, lemon/lime taste, but a smaller group, of about 4%-14% of people tested, think cilantro tastes like bath soap, as linked to a gene which detects aldehyde chemicals also present in soap.  During the summer, when tomatoes and tomatillos are in season, this salsa is a staple that we make weekly. We love this Chimichurri (cilantro pesto) as a dip for toasted bread, tortillas or cut veggies. We also love including chopped cilantro in our lettuce salads for added flavor. We also enjoy this Green Tomato Curry that is delicious served over rice or on tacos.

Sold in 1/4 pound bunches.
