Citronella is a different spice plant

Citronella looks like a weed, with narrow strip-shaped leaves. The leaves are mostly gray-green, clustered, and have many leaves. The most special thing is that it contains lemon flavor and spicy taste, which adds a refreshing fragrance when making food.

In food videos, we often see Thai people picking slender leaves or roots as garnishes. In fact, it is lemongrass, a commonly used spice in Southeast Asian countries. Dai compatriots also like to use lemongrass as seasoning to marinate fish or meat. After it is flavored, grill it over a low fire with charcoal to make the meat tender and delicious.

Citronella grass grows in high-temperature, rainy and sunny environments. The tropics and subtropics are its suitable growing areas. Friends who are interested can go to the local area to taste the delicious food. Citronella grass also has ornamental value. When gathered together, the elegant leaves are also a beautiful scenery. It is edible, can be used for greening, and can be used to scent the home. I like it because it has multiple uses. It doesn’t look amazing, but the fragrance it releases can also repel mosquitoes.
