2. I think it is
More of those lemony volatile oils and such.

Are you near any asian supermarkets? I bet you could get a bundle of it for a decent price - get a bunch and freeze what you don't use. We grew a huge amount last summer - and still have some in the freezer.

re. texture - I've seen recipes that call for it to be strained out after the blending.

good luck - I love lemongrass! :hi:
