    How do you like to use Lemongrass? I love that chai ☕️ For everyone asking, here is the lemongrass ginger chai recipe. I also added 2 more of my mom's lemongrass tea recipes to this video. They other 2 recipes are herbal and non caffeinated, so if you want an evening tea, these are amazing. Hope you get a chance to make them and enjoy them all: ruclips.net/video/0RIUq6u0Ku4/видео.html

    • @AmritaBhortake
      @AmritaBhortake  7 месяцев назад

      Yes, it is possible to use a microwave oven if the temperature can be set to a low limit. I would definitely recommend keeping an eye on it and testing out a little bit of lemongrass before making the whole batch because you can burn the lemongrass if the temperature is too hot.

    Hey thanks so much for this video! I had a question. I tried storing lemongrass after drying them in the sun for 2-3 days, as you've shared. Once, I stored them for a couple of days I could see some black fungal growth on them. Could you suggest some workaround or if you've faced anything like this?

    • @AmritaBhortake
      @AmritaBhortake  5 месяцев назад

      Thanks so much for your kind words. It looks like it wasn’t dry enough. Did the lemongrass leaves snap when broken? It was either the lemongrass itself or the container that had moisture and caused the fungus. The only way to prevent it would be to dry the lemongrass thoroughly and then pack it in a dry sterilized container. There is not much you can do once it has fungus and it will need to be discarded.

      Absolutely! It can be easily blended to make it into a powder if you use it that way. I usually use in my teas especially my ginger lemongrass chai so I prefer it a little larger so it is easier to filter out. How do you use in powder form?
