Native Lemon Grass

Native Lemon Grass is seriously our favourite ingredient of them all. Not just for their sherbet bomb flavour, but because it is also a fantastic digestive.

Not as juicy as the lemongrass you might be used to. The stalks are sturdy grass with fluffy tops and are a very pale straw-like colour. It has a beautiful lemon sherbet flavour. We use it in our Aussie Lemon Tea but it is can be used in broths, to stuff meat or infused into all kinds of sweet treats. It is also a fantastic digestive.

How to Use

We sell our Australian Native Lemongrass in two ways, dried and powdered or dried and whole stalk, in a resealable bags for absolute freshness.

Depending on availability this comes as stalk leaf and or powder. If you wish to make powder from the stalk.

Recipes

This spice is featured in these recipes in Warndu Mai:

Our products are all made in Australia from 100% locally sourced, seasonal and wild harvested produce.

Warndu means good in the Adnyamathanha language. 

Our mission is to REGENERATE culture, community, tradition, health and our soils. Every product we make includes one or more Australian Native ingredients. 

In our efforts to be zero waste and plastic free, and with the changes to recycling in Australia, we will be phasing out all plastic bags. For now you may receive your spices, teas and home products in either black, white or clear plastic, and once that is all gone our amazing new compostable plant-based packaging will be what you will receive products in.
Thanks for your patience and understanding whilst we endeavour to tread lightly on your yarta (land).

To maintain Warndu taste we keep smaller quantities on hand of our Australian Natives, it takes us a little while to dry, roast or grind them to make. We aim to send all orders within ten days of receiving them.

Native Lemon Grass dried. 5 star rating.

My order arrived quickly and well packaged. So far I have used the lemon grass added to tea. And one recipe. It adds a subtle lemon taste, but you could add more for a stronger taste. I plan to use it in more recipes, but mostly will add to tea. Great quality.
