Cilantro and cilantro パクチー

ここアメリカに来てレストランで食事をするとほとんどの料理にパクチー(コリアンダー)が飾られてくる。パクチーはちょっとクセがあるから最初は駄目な人が多いと思う。日本でも浸透はしてきてるけどアメリカほどここまで使われてないと思った。・・・今日はそんな1日だった。

Whenever I go to restaurant since I came to US, I almost always see cilantro on the dish. Cilantro has a little specific scent or flavor (to me). So I think not many people like it first they try. It's getting popular in Japan but not as much as here in US.... This is what I felt today.

  1. i think it depends on what part of the US. Like anywhere there is a heavy Hispanic population uses a lot of cilantro in many dishes,

  4. You can be genetically disposed towards not liking cilantro if you've a specific gene sequence then cilantro will taste like soap to you. It is a bit weird but it is true. I'd hate to live in Mexico and be afflicted with such that is for sure or even here in Texas.
