Weirdly, I'm similar from the opposite side. I can see how it tastes soapy to people, I kinda detect the soapyness too. But it doesn't ruin it for me, I like cilantro.

Candied ginger tastes like soap to me though. Fresh or powdered ginger doesn't.

Huh. I have no problem with candied ginger (or fresh) at all. I'm not crazy about it, but it certainly doesn't taste like soap.

Very interesting, so it's probably unrelated.
