Lemongrass Preparation
Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare the Lemongrass
Trim the ends of the lemongrass stalks and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the stalks into a few pieces and bruise them with the back of a knife to release the essential oils.
Simmer
In a pot, combine the bruised lemongrass pieces, water, and ginger. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes.
Strain and Sweeten
After simmering, strain the liquid into a pitcher, discarding the lemongrass and ginger pieces. Stir in the sugar and lime juice until dissolved. Add salt to taste.
Chill and Serve
Let the lemongrass mixture cool, then refrigerate until chilled. Serve over ice or as a refreshing beverage.
