About this deal

Once your lemongrass has developed roots 1/2 inch to 1 inch long, plant it in your garden or in a pot with lots of rich soil.

In a 2012 observational study, 72 male volunteers were given either lemongrass tea or green tea to drink. Oven drying isn’t recommended because there is a high risk of burning lemongrass due to the higher operating temperature of most ovens.Start by adding less than you think you need, and be sure to taste as you go, adding more if you think it is needed.

Or you can freeze it for up to six months (also wrapped in plastic), without losing the herb’s unique flavour. Follow your food dehydrator’s instruction manual to determine the appropriate setting for herbs or set the temperature between 95°F to 115°F, which will dry them while preserving their essential oils. Those who drank the lemongrass tea experienced a moderate drop in systolic blood pressure and a mild increase in diastolic blood pressure.

When this happens, transfer them into a pot of soil, put them back on your windowsill and watch them grow.

A 2012 study on rodents published by the National Institutes of Health showed that lemongrass may also be effective against gastric ulcers. Lemongrass can heighten the taste and aroma of a dish by adding a unique blend of citrus, bitter, and herbal flavors.

Lemongrass is a perennial grass that grows in the sub-tropical and tropical climates of Africa, Asia, and Australia. Dried lemongrass stalks ground into a powder: Ground lemongrass or lemongrass powder is ideal for soup, curry, or stir-fry. If you’re a fan of vodka, drop a couple of the bruised stalks into a bottle, leave for a month, and enjoy.

If you’re making soups, stews, broths or dishes simmered for a long time, use dried because it rehydrates as it cooks. If you are able to source fresh lemongrass, I highly recommend it over the dried versions to be able to taste the full complexity of the herb.The Thai chicken noodle soup with lemongrass recipealso uses coconut milk and is an interesting twist on a favorite soup. The amount of layers you peel off depends on the freshness of the lemongrass – two layers ought to do it, or maybe a few more if the stalks aren’t fresh. At times, you might even find it in Americanized masala chai spice mixtures, especially those that include plenty of ginger. This method works well but it can take some of the flavors out of the lemongrass, especially if the temperature gets too hot.
