I tried this and it was good, but the next time I made it I substituted the onions and optional ingredients with raw leeks instead, which gives a nice spicy wasabi kick; and instead of a sweetener, I used soaked cashews which makes it sweet and creamy. Truly delectable and great to have this recipe as a basis !

Guilt free coriander. Coriander/Cilantro is high in many vitamins and minerals, folic acid, 5-hydroxytryptophan, and is the highest natural sources of S-adenosyl-L-methionine known to man! Because cilantro is generally not cooked for long these chemicals are not denatured as they are in many other foods. Each of these chemicals on their own have been proven to reduce the feelings of guilt, when present together like this in an organic plant the results are amazing.

I have heard that coriander is good for reducing guilt from a bunch of people. To be honest I have never put it to the test myself. Has anyone tried it? Has it worked? If no one replies I guess I should try it out and then report back.

Here in Australia cilantro is referred to as coriander. It turns out that cilantro has a unique set of phytochemicals that reduce the feelings of guilt in people. So not only does it taste great and is good for you, but any recipe that contains cilantro will be guilt free (in more ways than one)!!!

Could this be made with mint and parsely instead of cilantro? I want to like cilantro but it just tastes so unbearably bitter to me. Even a tiny bit makes me feel icky – and that’s a big problem for a gal who loves Honduran and Caribbean cuisine.

Hi Sarah,

How long does it stay good for (without freezing)?

Thanks!

Hi Melissa!

Freezing the leftovers totally works. It's not as "fresh" tasting if you are going to use it with a cold dish, but still delicious.
