The general method is to wash the lemongrass and fry it in oil over a slow fire to fully integrate its fragrance into the oil, and then use the fried lemongrass oil to mix with other things as condiments.

Because lemongrass itself is neither edible nor delicious, whether it is chopped or powdered, it will affect the taste if mixed with food. What we want is its special fragrance, so we usually use the above method.

If it is used to make brine or fry the bottom of a pot, you can use the entire section.
