Strong flavor, hmm.

I either use more, or cook it just enough that the leaves turn darker. I'm sort of in the opposite boat in that I love cilantro and want some way to tone it down so the amount I want in a dish is acceptable to others.

I do still harvest leaves when/after it flowers, just trying to leave enough on that it gets some sun/energy to finish up the coriander. It's not "as" good as earlier sprouts but I take what I can get and look forward to the fall opportunity to grow more.

I really think the flavor like and dislike is a strong genetic thing. Seems people love it or hate it. I think it is the most delicious clean flavor there is. My nephew says it tastes like dirt.
