I am 100% Cuban, and cilantro is not used in ANY Cuban cuisine. This version tasted good, but tastes NOTHING like traditional ropa vieja. To those who do not know, Puerto Rican, Mexican, Dominican, Peruvian, and Cuban food are not at all the same. They use different spices, and flavor profiles. It is beyond insulting that so many don't know the different. Cilantro? Really? Google even knows better.5Replies 4
