Lemongrass: A Versatile Herb

Lemongrass, with its distinct citrusy flavor, is a staple in Asian cuisine. It's the key ingredient in Tom Kha Gai, a popular Thai coconut soup, and is delicious in teas, curries, and various meat, poultry, and seafood dishes. It even adds a subtle zest to steamed shellfish.

Native to India and tropical Asia, lemongrass is readily available in Australian supermarkets, greengrocers, and Asian food stores. Being a perennial, it's a rewarding addition to any home garden, providing a continuous harvest.
