That’s too bad about your cilantro. I have way too much in the summer. I plant it next to the dill. Which I also have way too much of. Maybe something is eating it?? I figure if your soil can grow dill you should be able to grow cilantro.
Doesn’t the sun wilt them?
Eating it? I can’t even get a seedling to poke above the soil...And I’m in the 2nd floor condo..big screened porch..so hopefully NOTHING is getting up and in..unless I invite them
Problem with cilantro is keeping it from turning black in a day’s time.
I discovered that cilantro seems to keep longer with a sliced raw onion in the ziploc.
Must have cilantro for good salsa.
I just put it in a glass of water in the fridge, it will keep quite awhile. But it is very hard to grow - I never could until this year, and somehow some seeds got in with my petunia planters, and suddenly I had cilantro and didn’t even know it.
I remember a restaurant with a salad bar that had radish sprouts on it! Ooh, I sure did love them. Pungent and spicy. I would love to make them, I make a lot of salad.
Excellent topic! Thank you!
This might be a ‘close’ recipe.

Here’s the ingredients and nutritional for the Texas Pete’s hot dog sauce...I think I’d rather go with homemade. ;) Soy crumbles? eewww....;)

And, this youtube recipe for Texas Hot Weiner sauce looks interesting, something regional around upstate NY.

Oh... I think I was supposed to mention alfalfa sprouts here. Oops.
Ping!
It’s whats for dinner.
Last month I was in Waterbury, CT for work and went to this hot dog place called Frankie's that had been recommended to me. On the menu was... well... guess!
I added my own mustard and onions, because that's how I like it too... oh with a pickle slice too sometimes. I just thought it funny that the world knows it as a WV dog. I suppose the world also knows "WV Pizza" includes ranch dressing for dipping!
Yep, that’s it. They must have mighty muscles (or a mighty mixer) to get them mixed without more liquid. It was way past my abilities!
Same deal in Texas... when there is What-A-Burger available, to hell with McD's or BK!
I am one of the 50% of people that thinks “coriander weed” tastes like SOAP... but I agree, a proper salsa REQUIRES fresh cilantro.
Thanks for the laugh - sincerely. I needed it. If you are doing pots maybe a different soil. Definitely something sandy - good drainage. Also maybe soak your seeds in a wet paper to well wrapped in plastic wrap for a day.
I wonder if some brands of the lemon stuff are more liquid than others. But I think I’ll take your word, and just try it your way...
I also found this “Lemon Pillow Cake” - the pic looks scrumptious:

The last time we ordered seeds, we got some Daikon radish seeds - probably different from red radish; but we’re going to start them this weekend, and I’ll let you know how they go.

I don’t know which is better comfort food - the chipped beef on toast, or biscuits and sausage gravy ;-)

Yea, that would be easy, too. As long as you don’t mind lemony blobs in your cake. :-)
My BIL lives down there.
I hate going there but next time hubs wants to go maybe I’ll go.
Those burgers are nummy!
