Cilantro  
The cilantro was actually from last week's box and I was worried that it had gotten a little too old. I forgot to put it in some water when I first brought it home. But I was able to collect enough leaves to make the sauce.



I found this recipe on the Mariquita site:

BOB'S FABULOUS YUMMY MARINADE
This marinade can be used to marinate tofu and meats, as a sauce for noodles or rice, and as a dressing for a green salad.
5 tbsp.
1/3 cup
1/4 cup
1/4 cup
1 oz.
6 lg. cloves
1 1/2 tbsp.
1 small
vegetable oil
packed fresh cilantro with stems
fresh lime juice
tamari soy sauce
fresh ginger (about an inch of it?), cut into six 1/4 inch slices
garlic
ground cumin
jalape–o or other chile (optional)

Combine and blend all ingredients together in a food processor or blender until the chile, garlic, ginger and cilantro are finely chopped.


Cooked up it looks like this:



Substitutions: I left out the chili. I had a little more than 1/3 cup of cilantro, so I slightly upped all of the ingredients.

What I might try differently next time: Nothing to change, as of yet. I have only tasted a tiny bit. I will find something to cook with it. All the ingredients have strong flavor, so it kind of jumps out at you.

Overall: TBD
