Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is an herb. It belongs to the family Poaceae, along with bamboo, black rice, brown rice, wheat, corn, oats, barley, millet, and rye, plus many other grasses. Fresh lemongrass stalks and leaf buds are available around the year in local markets.

Lemongrass is native to Asia and Australia. It can be grown in the US, but is only hardy to zone 9. I can be grown indoors, with lots of water and sun.

How much dried lemon grass do you need in a recipe that calls for fresh lemon grass?

You would need about a quarter of dried lemon grass by weight compared to fresh lemon grass. The problem is that dried lemon grass tends to be woody, and cannot be added whole to a recipe as you would with fresh lemon grass. The only way to get decent results is to make an extract (a very strong tea) with the dried lemon grass and use as seasoning just before serving.
