What are the uses of including Lemon grass in cooking?
Lemon grass has variety of uses in cooking such as base for curries, soups and stews, as flavoring for salads and as stuffing ingredient for roasted chicken, turkey or pig. -quote- “Tanglad or Lemongrass (Cymboporon citratus) is a fragrant grass that grows in abundant clumps just about anywhere in the tropics. It possesses a larger bulb near the base of the stalks and it tanglad is here that the lemon or citrus flavoring is most often obtained (though we Filipinos use the entire leaf for stuffing). We used to have a huge healthy plant at home in my kitchen garden but for some reason it died last year. So I have taken to purchasing our tanglad at the markets instead. Lemongrass is used as a base for curries, soups and stews and it is also used to flavor salads, as part of marinades and as stuffing material.
