@bestiaexmachina People use it as a sweetener, but to me it tastes like soapy sadness. 😅

@bestiaexmachina Ah yeah, I can do coriander/cilantro just fine -- it's delicious! So I'm not sure! Also yes, agave seems prevalent in vegan stuff. I just go with whatever I have on hand -- sugar, molasses, maple syrup, corn syrup, honey etc. Usually works but just reading the recipe reminds me of a soap flavor and I lose my willpower to even try it, haha. |
@Mlep Oh no! 🙈 Maybe it's similar to the coriander phenomenon? Apparently it's a matter of genetics whether coriander tastes great or soapy to you.
To be honest, if a recipe asks for agave syrup (which mostly seems to be a thing in vegan recipes) I just replace it with maple syrup. I have no idea what agave tastes like or if they taste similar at all, but it seems to work because the food turns out tasting great. 😄
