Vegan Cream of Coriander (Cilantro) Soup image

Since I can't grow it to save my life and the supermarket seems to only sell it in giant bunches I constantly find myself left with a big bunch of coriander (cilantro) hanging out in my fridge. I hate, hate, hate wasting food so I had to come up with a way to use it up before it died a slow and messy death in the back of my fridge!

This soup is a waste of time and ingredients. It's not worth making.

I tried making this soup but it didn't turn out well. I think I followed the recipe incorrectly.

I found this soup to be a bit bland. I think it needed more salt and pepper.

This soup is a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less cayenne pepper.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover coriander. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.

I'm not usually a fan of coriander, but this soup changed my mind. It was so creamy and flavorful, and the coriander was used perfectly.

This soup was an absolute delight! The creamy coriander flavor was perfectly balanced, and the hints of cumin and ginger added a wonderful depth of flavor.
