We Love Lemongrass

We have been using lemongrass in more ways than one.

For the kids, the product Stingless Citronella Oil to ward off the mosquitoes that may cause dengue.

For cooking, we love lemongrass in mussels, chicken tinola and Hainanese Chicken.

For drinks, I put lemongrass stalks in juices and even in water to make it more refreshing. When I have allergies, I drink a cup of warm water, steep a stalk or a little  bulb of lemongrass, a tablespoon of honey and a garlic slice in the water to relieve myself from all these uncomfortable feeling. It works like a miracle!

I still have a lot to read about the benefits of lemongrass on skin care if it works fine with skin conditions like the way psoriasis products or skin cleansing products work.

I know lemongrass can be used for pets with fleas and help sooth tired muscles.

We love lemongrass. Obvious, isn’t it?

Mussels in Lemongrass Broth

I love mussels. Baked, in a seafood pasta and cooked with clear broth, I would definitely like to have these.

I still remember how these mussels were cooked: onions, ginger, garlic, salt and pepper. Sprite was added then instead of water.

Now,  I would not want to serve that because its not healthy. I use lemongrass for the broth.
