Salsa recipe from Ball canning, called Fresh Salsa. I had never peeled a tomato before. It wasn’t as difficult as I feared. Also managed to have enough garden tomatoes I didn’t need the backup store tomatoes!

    Haha, I’m not sure why they did! I wish I could eat it, the way people who can describe it makes it sound amazing!

    Maybe one day we can take a pill like for lactose intolerant people do for dairy, then have some cilantro, that would be cool!

      🤔 I wonder if miraculin tablets would work? Obviously they wouldn’t make it taste like it does normally, but it may make it palatable.

        I think they would make the rest of the salsa taste…weird. It would be interesting to try and just chew on some cilantro straight up though! That could be fun!

      My friend has the cilantro soap gene and she said cilantro paste actually doesn’t taste like soap for some reason. Not sure why though.

      Just an FYI, when I was younger I had the soap thing too, I have found over time that exposing myself to small doses in my salsa has acclimated me to it? Like I would make a batch and then put a minuscule amount in so I could say I did but still find it palatable - and over time it just got better and better. These days I couldn’t live without it, but I still feel like it’s an herb that’s easy to overdo, like cumin.
