Fresh lemongrass is a fragrant herb commonly used in Asian cuisine and traditional medicine. It has long, slender green stalks with a lemony aroma and a slightly citrusy, tangy flavor. Native to tropical regions, especially Southeast Asia, lemongrass is popular in dishes like soups, curries, and teas.
In addition to its culinary uses, lemongrass is valued for its potential health benefits, such as aiding digestion, reducing inflammation, and offering antibacterial and antifungal properties. It’s also used in aromatherapy and natural insect repellents. When using fresh lemongrass, the lower stalk is typically crushed or chopped to release its oils and flavor.
