Cilantro taste
Detects aldehyde in cilantro
| Genotype | Impact | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| CC (Normal) | Moderate | Cilantro (coriander) tends to taste soapy or unpleasant to you - a common smell-receptor variant, not a problem. Swap for parsley, basil or mint if you dislike it. |
| CA (Carrier) | Low impact | You may notice some soapy notes in cilantro but can often tolerate it. Try it finely chopped or cooked, which softens the effect. |
| AA (Variant) | Normal | Normal cilantro perception - you likely enjoy the herb. Use it freely as a fresh, antioxidant-rich garnish. |
