As I said, you can make my recipes without cilantro.DEOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07339174835044922398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7419455752598282378.post-14576872856136057302009-03-19T15:35:00.000-04:002009-03-19T15:35:00.000-04:00You must be a lady-chef of the demonic variety, on...You must be a lady-chef of the demonic variety, one of Satan's minions freshly ascended from hell to force your cilantrocentric ideals upon all of us.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7419455752598282378.post-59860497884814405082009-03-19T00:24:00.000-04:002009-03-19T00:24:00.000-04:00Wow, I thought I was the only person who hated cil...Wow, I thought I was the only person who hated cilantro. Seriously, it's terrible. I made meatballs once with what I thought was fresh parsley-- oops, no, it was actually cilantro, lurking nearby and looking green and leafy.
