If you research it, you may find you have a dominant genetic trait (although unproven) to detect the Phenylthiocarbimine in it - some people do - other don't - just like rolling your tounge. Some interesting reading on it - and people that aren't repulsed by it or aren't able to taste the soapyness of it usually have it as one of their top 3 herbs funnily enough.
Most people with the gene to detect it, say that Coriander tastes like soap or washing powder. I love the stuff, but my wife hates it - and can taste it a mile off if she eats anyhting that has it in. She says she can even smell/taste it days after encountering it
