Question for you, Unca Dave: > 1/2 ts Ground coriander (opt) ** > ** This used to be 2 teaspoons of ground coriander (soapweed) but I > was getting "strange taste" comments on judge's sheets until I cut > this ingredient waaaay back. Now I win prizes with this receipe once > again. I want to ask you to clarify something for me, because even though I know that coriander, cilantro, and soapweed mean the same plant, I use the term "coriander" to mean the seeds of the plant and "cilantro" and/or "soapweed" to mean the leaves, dry or fresh, of that plant. So, "ground coriander" wouldn't mean the same thing as "soapweed", nor does it even taste the same. (Ground coriander is an important ingredient in making sausages and pastrami etc. and I can't STAND the taste of cilantro at all, not even the smallest little bit, because the soap flavor just overpowers everything to me - and please, folks, lets NOT start another thread about that: for some people it does and for some it doesn't and we should leave it at that.) So: Do you mean the seed or the leaf? === Dave Sacerdote davesas@ntplx.net Resist or Serve.
