Cilantro is quite a divisive taste, with some people loving the citrus kick it gives to fresh salsa and Mexican dishes, whereas others associate it with an unpleasant soap-like taste, making taking the herb in capsule form more appealing.
Interestingly, recent research has put this perceived soap taste down to a gene that detects specific aldehydes, with research suggesting this taste could affect as many as a quarter of the worldwide population.
All parts of the coriander plant can be used in cooking but typically the fresh leaves and dried seeds are what are used most frequently in cooking.
