Lemongrass, with its tall and fragrant stalks, is a favored herb in culinary and medicinal spheres alike. Its appearance is characterized by long, pale green leaves with bulbous lower ends, resembling reedy stalks. When fresh, the grass emits a citrusy fragrance which intensifies upon bruising or chopping. The flavor profile of Lemongrass is a vibrant blend of lemon zest and a hint of ginger. Popular in Asian cuisine, particularly Thai and Vietnamese dishes, its refreshing taste enhances soups, curries, teas, and cocktails. In addition to its culinary uses, Lemongrass is often found in aromatherapy and natural remedies due to its essential oils that are said to have soothing properties.
