minus-squareroom_raccoonlinkfedilink23•9 months agoWhatever the heck lemongrass actually does, it sure tastes delicious
minus-square@cheese_greater@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink12•9 months agoIt never seems to get its own one-man show, its always lumped with at least like 5 other ingredients so I can’t isolate it but I’m sure you’re correct. I love lemon + I love grass so ya
minus-squareroom_raccoonlinkfedilink19•9 months agoI think the taste can be somewhat prominent in Thai curries and soups at least
