Aloha Jonathan,
Hmmm... I always buy my Chinese Parsley from Chinatown market place. Yes,
the taste and aroma is quite different from the ones sold in the
supermarkets here.
The Chinese also like to feed once or twice a week, a 10-minute boiled
"juice" of carrots and Chinese parsley (strained, no salt added) to a baby
by the time he is 2 months old. I vaguely remember starting with about 1
oz and slowly working up to 4 ozs. for my son. Sometimes a couple of water
chestnuts is added to this mix. If I recall correctly, my mother told me
this juice is supposed to reduce the baby's "heat" caused by drinking cow's
milk. My son is now 40 yrs. old and it seemed so long ago... LOL.
Warmest regards,
Helena

R.e. cilantro: my education continues. What I had been buying in Japan
as cilantro turns out to be another kind of parsley, very similar in
appearance to cilantro. A Thai friend knew the difference and got us some
cilantro, which has an astonishing aroma and very nice flavor, I
think. (Still not certain of the Japanese name of this plant. . . . )
Bottom line: cilantro looks like some other kinds of Asian parsley,
so be sure you know what you are buying, or you will not get the
chelating benefit.
