Morning,
Does anyone grow this? I love cooking with it and it's bloomin expensive even at the Asian market near us. I bought some seeds last year and grew a couple of pretty big plants but they don't taste right. They smell nice and all that but it doesn't seem the same type you they use in thai food. It's darker and more woody with less flavour. A Chinese friend said the best way to grow stuff to cook is from lemongrass from the market that's sold to eat. Is this true? I'm keen to have another crack this year as a free supply of fresh lemongrass sounds very appealing. 😃. Anyone had any luck with lemongrass?
