I love the flavor of cilantro. We got cilantro in the last share and I still hadn't used it so I went on line and looked for a cilantro pesto recipe. I found one on the foodnetwork website.
Of course I made some changes as reflected below.
Cilantro Pesto
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 bunch cilantro, cleaned
1/2 tsp hot sesame oil
1/2 c. pecans
1 lime, juice and zest
2 inches fresh ginger
1/2 c olive oil
1 tsp salt
1 lb pasta
Cook pasta. Mix all remaining ingredients in a food processor. Mix together.

That just strikes me as the worst pasta ever!
But, you knew I'd say that!
I just can't get into cilantro. It has a soapy taste to me. Basil on the other hand - Yum-m-m-m. Are you not participating in the Summer share. Won't you miss all that pac choi and mesclun!!
That's a common complaint about cilantro and there are lots of people who really hate it. I love it though!
We're doing the share but I didn't get around to posting the picture yesterday. Hope to get to it tonight. And no pac choi this week! Yay!
