How to Pick

When selecting a lemon grass stem, look for ones that are firm, with a strong lemon scent and minimal browning or wilting. Avoid any stems that are soft or have a musty odor, as these are signs of spoilage. For the best flavor, choose stems that are about 1/2 inch thick and a vibrant green color, as these are indicators of freshness and quality. 

When shopping for lemon grass, also consider the length of the stem, as longer stems typically have more flavor and aroma.

How to Store

Store lemon grass stems in the refrigerator, wrapped in a damp paper towel and placed in a plastic bag to keep them fresh. Alternatively, you can freeze lemon grass stems for longer storage. Simply chop the stems into small pieces and store them in an airtight container in the freezer. This will preserve their flavor and aroma for use in future recipes.

Where it’s Sourced

Our Lemon Grass stems are grown in the sunny and temperate regions of Australia, such as Queensland and New South Wales. The perfect combination of warm weather and rich soil in these areas allows our lemon grass to thrive and develop its aromatic and flavorful qualities.

Serving Suggestions

You can also finely chop the lemon grass and use it to infuse marinades, dressings, or even cocktails for a unique and refreshing twist. Let your culinary creativity shine with this versatile and aromatic herb.
