Some notions of botany

Native to southern India and Sri Lanka, lemongrass, nicknamed “Indian verbena”, is a perennial herbaceous plant with its rhizomes. It also grows in other tropical regions such as the Antilles and Africa. Its long, narrow, linear leaves with blue-green sharp edges give off a strong aromatic odor when crushed, close to that of lemon. The lemongrass stem is hollow and bulbous. Its base is traditionally used in the composition of a very refreshing drink, and brings an exotic, fresh, green and lemony note to certain South-East Asian dishes and desserts.

A little history…

In ancient times, the Egyptians praised its medicinal properties. The Greeks and Romans used a species very close to Java lemongrass, called "Indian spikenard", whose fresh and slightly spicy notes were part of the composition of the famous "royal perfume" of the Parthians, celebrated by Pliny the Elder. Very popular since the 18th century, it is still appreciated for its taste properties and its very characteristic smell.
