Lemongrass oil is extracted from Cymbopogon citratus.Lemongrass is a perennial grass that grows up to 6 feet tall and 4 feet wide. It has a short rhizome and resembles other members of the grass family in its long, upright blades. However, lemongrass leaves are found at the ends of the stems and grow in clumps. The plant is robust with thick stems and broad, bluish-green leaves that have an aromatic scent. Lemongrass rarely produces flowers. Its roots are fibrous and adventitious, measuring 5-10 mm in length and 0.2-0.5 mm in thickness. The rhizome is irregularly shaped, dark brown in color, with narrow internodes up to 9 cm long and 1-2 cm in diameter. The plant's leaves are glaucous, linear, and parallel-veined, reaching lengths of about 90 cm and widths of 2-3 cm. They have a pointed tip and a sheathing base with a ligule at the bottom, giving off a lemony aroma and a bitter taste.

Lemongrass originates from Asia and grows well in warm, sunny climates. It's a fundamental ingredient in Asian cuisine and is also used to produce essential oil. Lemongrass has a delicate flavor that doesn't overpower other ingredients. One of its most notable uses is as a key component in lemongrass soup. Beyond cooking, it's employed in perfumery and incorporated into skin care products, soaps, and various food items such as soft drinks, candies, ice cream, and baked goods.CymbopogonThe name is derived from the Greek roots "kymbe", meaning boat, and "pogon", meaning beard, which describe the flower's distinctive spiky shape.

How to use:

Powdered Herb:

Powdered herbs can be used in a variety of ways.

You can add powdered herbs to various foods like superfood blends, smoothies, sauces, spreads, and baked goods such as cookies. For children, mix the powder with honey or glycerin to create a paste. The thicker the paste, the stronger its flavor will be. This method is called "Electuaries" and can help mask the herbal taste with the sweetness of honey or glycerin.

Making your own herbal capsules at home ensures the purity of the ingredients, as they contain only your chosen herb without additives. These capsules can be dissolved in a liquid for easy consumption.

Herbal poultice: Mix an herbal powder with liquid, typically water, to create a paste that can be applied directly to the skin, providing relief from various skin issues.

Mix powdered herbs with water, fruit juice, or another liquid to create a concentrated herbal drink.
