THE FIRST WORD


papalo
In the summer, she chops papalo up for homemade salsas and says it tastes like "cilantro on steroids."
Papalo comes from the word for "butterfly" in Nahuatl, the language of the Nahua people, many of whom live in central Mexico. It's also known as summer cilantro and Bolivian coriander (although botanically, it's unrelated to coriander).
