Fig newtons are typically made with dried figs, as they provide a concentrated sweetness and a chewy texture that works well in the filling. While fresh figs can be used, they contain more moisture and may not yield the same consistency in the final product. Dried figs also blend easily into a paste, making them ideal for the traditional cookie.

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.
