Amount Ingredient
3 stalk Fresh lemon grass
(available at Asian and some supermarkets)
Raw sugar, honey, or other sweetener as desired
Instructions:
Instructions: In a large teapot, combine the lemon grass with about 6 cups of rapidly boiling, fresh water. Cover the teapot with a thick towel and allow to steep for 5 to 10 minutes, or until very aromatic. Pour into teacups, sweeten and serve with a twist of lemon, if desired.

This recipe yields 6 servings.

Comments: You can use the tough outer skins and upper stalks of the lemon grass for this aromatic tea, saving the tender inner stalks for slicing into stews, sautes, and soups.
