I had Nova Scotian scallops that I needed to cook :anchor: I forgot we were going to my FIL’s for supper and didn’t want to leave them another day in fridge.
Normally I cook all at once and they kinda steam/boil due to moisture content, but this time I did in two batches and got a better sear :yum: not perfect but better than my usual.
I want to eat them all! But I’ll wait and stink up the office tomorrow for lunch. Muhahaha :laughing:

It is, in fact, a thing! From britannica.com:
“Of course some of this dislike may come down to simple preference, but for those cilantro-haters for whom the plant tastes like soap, the issue is genetic . These people have a variation in a group of olfactory-receptor genes that allows them to strongly perceive the soapy-flavored aldehydes in cilantro leaves.”
Edit to say cilantro=coriander

@Runningfree if I wasn’t planning breakfast for dinner I’d do it, too. :sweat_smile:

It was really yummy!! I was wishing for some avocado but plain egg, cheese and bacon was pretty good :yum:

I doubt that this will go well with your colleagues. I once sat in a coach with Corsica as destination. The tour took us around 26 hours and somebody took out a roll with minced meat and fresh onions at the start. To say nobody was pleased is would be an euphemism.

“O soapy flavour / Why pollutest thou my food? / Thou me makest retch,” reads one of the hundreds of haikus posted to the website IHateCilantro.com

I’ve never heard of this until now.
