Lemon grass is a tropical grass with a lemony scent and taste that’s used in cooking. It is typically sold fresh, but it’s also available dried and powdered. Lemon grass is common in Thai, Vietnamese, and Sri Lankan dishes, and it’s also becoming popular in other cuisines. You can use lemon grass in dishes ranging from soups to desserts….

There are 2 kinds of lemongrass: East Indian and West Indian but there is little difference between them in terms of culinary use and growing. There really isn’t much variety to choose from. Whether you use it to add flavor to meat or fish, or just to brew tea, remember that it can be quite strong. It doesn’t take much. Want to know how to grow it and how else you can use lemongrass?
