    Here I looked it up for you, one site answered like this: Thanks to all of you for your helpful responses. Most of the time, either omitting the cilantro or subbing parsley works fine -- but occasionally not. I never thought to try basil, but it's a great suggestion.

    Hey, we're all here to learn. Cilantro is from the Coriander Plant. It's also called Chinese Parsley. You'll be looking for bright green leaves, sold in bunches and the taste is very pungent, used in highly seasoned food. The seeds (called coriander)are actually quite sweet (to my taste). Good luck in your search. Why don't you try googling substitutes for cilantro?

    Forgive my ignorance, but what is Cilantro? I have never seen this in the shops in the U.K. Is there an alternative?

    Yum! Can't wait til Indiana corn is ready (if we have any after all the flooding we are having!).
