She doesn't know what she's missing out on. I think you need to start hiding some beans in dishes, tricking her into eating them :) <strong>Arwen from Hoglet K</strong>: Thanks, it was. The coriander actually really made it. <strong>Forager</strong>: Wow, really? I never knew. How interesting and wonderful to discover similarites in such diverse cuisines. Howard: Oh no!

My recipe for Mexican/South American pozole blanco uses it, radish and avocado in a pork and corn based soup. Actually we found a lot of the cuisine surprisingly "Asian". Lots of rice, beans and meat style dishes, things that looked like sticky rice dumplings wrapped in pandan leaves and use of herbs that I only know the Chinese/Vietnamese names for. I've read in 1421 there are tribes of native South Americans that speak a Chinese dialect.. maybe that's a clue? The coriander is definitely part of Central and South American cuisine.
