The founder, Pastor Law, came into contact with Gospel Drug Rehabilitation for the first time in 1983. After half a year, he left Gospel Drug Rehabilitation Village. After a few months, I repeated the same mistakes. After that, he believed that it was not only about getting rid of drugs, but I knew more clearly that I needed to Believing in Jesus will completely change me. In 2014, he was ordained as a pastor by an organization to shepherd more needy groups. Most of their harvests are those who have been recovered from drug addiction treatment and participate in farming. We look forward to receiving support from consumers!

The older outer leaves can be used to flavor or make herbal tea.

How to buy
Look for sturdy stems and don't buy them if they look dry or wilted. If you can't buy fresh lemongrass, you can also buy dried lemongrass instead, but dry lemongrass is bitter and should not be heated for too long.
storage method
Excess lemongrass can be stored in the refrigerator. Lemongrass can be used as a dry spice if it becomes hard or discolored. Wrap in plastic bags and refrigerate for two to three weeks, or freezer for up to six months. Frozen lemongrass retains its original aroma. Air-dried will lose the flavor of lemongrass. There are also sold dried lemongrass and lemongrass puree after boiling and filtering, but both have lost the original flavor of lemongrass.

cooking tips
For example, when lemongrass is used for stew or curry, it will be seasoned with the whole root, and the outermost two layers of its stem should be removed first, and it should be smashed and put into the dish for seasoning, and then taken out before serving. For example, when lemongrass is used as a soup or salad ingredient, the sprouts should not be cut into large pieces, otherwise there will be a lot of residue when chewing. The best taste is the part that is two to three centimeters closer to the root. The thinner part on the top is not suitable for raw food because it has many fibers and is hard. The green part of lemongrass is not eaten directly but is used as a spice in cooking. Suitable food types include beef, chicken, fish and shellfish, and pasta. Basil, chili, cinnamon, top chili, garlic, coconut milk and more.
#Remarks
When the citronella stems are broken, the volatile essential oils of the citronella exudes, making it even stronger.
