What is Lemongrass?

Lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) is a tall, perennial grass in a class of about 45 species of grasses native to the tropical and sub-tropical climates of Asia, Australia and Africa. India is the highest producer of lemongrass (producing over 2 million pounds per year), where it is cultivated along the mountain range of the Western Ghats and beside the foothills of Arunachal Pradesh and Sikkim in the Himalayan mountains.

How it Grows

Lemongrass has red base stems and can grow up to 10 feet in its favored habitat. The greatest time of growth for lemongrass is during the summer in moist, rich soil. If you're thinking of planting lemongrass, just remember its roots tend to take over in a garden, so physical barriers should be put up whenever planting the grass near other plants.

Each stalk of lemongrass has several layers, each growing tightly wrapped around its core. The top layers are tough and green like a corn husk's outer layer. When peeled away, you will find the familiar inner white core of the lemongrass stalk, which best for cooking.

What to Look For

When buying lemongrass, it’s important to keep a few essential facts in mind:

• Look for firm stalks; stalks that are soft or rubbery will not yield good flavor.
• The lower stalk should be a pale yellow, while the upper stalks are green.
• Stay away from lemongrass that has brown outer leaves.

Once you’ve selected your lemongrass, consider these storage tips:

• If you find your stalks have dried out, place them into pots of soil. Within ten days or so, they will grow new, bright-green blades.
• Good-quality lemongrass can be stored in the refrigerator, tightly wrapped, for up to two weeks.
• Lemongrass freezes well. Some of the aroma and freshness may be lost when frozen for long periods of time, but the unique flavor will remain and the grass will be easier to cut.
• Lemongrass stalks can also be cut into small pieces and dried. These dried pieces should be stored in airtight jars then used as is or ground to a powder before incorporating into a dish.

Lemongrass Processing:   Steaming → Cutting → Withering → Drying

How to Use Lemongrass

IN TEA

In African and Latin American cultures, lemongrass is frequently used (fresh or dried) to make tea.

Teatulia’s Lemongrass Herbal Infusion is a delicate blend of lemongrass and bay leaf, both grown in our own USDA-Certified organic tea garden. The bay leaf adds a uniquely invigorating aroma to the citrusy lemongrass, making the drink extremely refreshing when served hot or iced. To prepare our Lemongrass Herbal Infusion, pour 8 ounces of boiling water over one pyramid tea bag or 2 grams of the loose leaf herbal tea, and steep for five minutes.

Because Teatulia’s Lemongrass Herbal Infusion is tisane (also known as herbal tea), it can be left steeping in water indefinitely without the flavor developing the burnt, metallic or bitter taste that black, green or white teas can develop if allowed to steep too long. Tisanes are not made from the leaves of a Camellia sinensis tea plant and therefore do not adhere to the same strict steeping times. Because tisanes do not contain the tea plant, they also do not contain caffeine.

IN FOOD

The lower stalk of the lemongrass is widely used as an herb in cooking in Asian cuisine. Its mild citrus flavor is can be used in soups, poultry, beef and seafood dishes in its fresh, powered or dried format. When cooking with lemongrass, it’s usually best to remove all the outer layers, leaving just the tender white inner stalk. Many recipes call for “bruising” or bending the lemongrass several times to help release the flavor.

AT HOME

The oil extracted from lemongrass can be used for several different household purposes.

The characteristic bright citrus smell of the oil makes its beneficial for scenting soaps, detergents and insect repellent. The major use of lemongrass oil is as a source of citral, which is a popular ingredient in perfumes, cosmetics and beverages.

Lemongrass oil is most often used as a natural pest repellent in gardens to ward off insects. Despite its ability to repel insects, honeybees are attracted to the pheromones of the oil. This characteristic of the oil can be beneficial when trying to attract and capture swarms of bees. The oil is also used as an insect repellant ingredient in sprays, candles, soaps and aromatherapy. Research studies have shown the oil to have strong anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, making it an essential ingredient in household disinfectants.

PURSLANE'S HEALTH BENEFITS AND HOW TO USE IT

Purslane is a succulent annual trailing plant that grows in many countries because it thrives in poor soil. It can be eaten as a cooked vegetable and is great to use in salads, soups, stews or any dish you wish to sprinkle it over. Purslane is antibacterial, antiscorbutic, depurative, diuretic and febrifuge.

Botanically, this herbaceous leafy vegetable belongs to the family of Portulacaceae and scientifically known as Portulaca oleracea.

Other common names in place for this green leafy are pursley, pigweed, or verdolaga.

Purslane is native to Indian sub-continent and now distributed widely across the continents but actually as a wild weed. There exist varieties of pursley with variation in leaf size, thickness, and leaf arrangement and pigment distribution. This hardy herb plant requires relatively less water and soil nutrients and grows well sunny climates. The plant grows up to 12-15 cm in height as a low-lying spread.

Purslane is widely grown in many Asian and European regions as a staple leafy vegetable. Its leaves appear thick, mucilaginous, and have a slightly sour and salty (piquant) taste. Leaves and tender stems are edible. In addition to succulent stems and leaves, its yellow flower buds are also favored, especially in salads.

Purslane seeds, appear like black tea powder granules, are often used to make some herbal drinks.

PURSLANE HEALTH BENEFITS

Vitamin-A is a known powerful natural antioxidant and an essential vitamin for vision. It is also required to maintain healthy mucosa and skin. Consumption of natural vegetables and fruits rich in vitamin-A is known to help to protect from lung and oral cavity cancers.

Both pigment types are potent antioxidants and have been found to have antimutagenic properties in laboratory studies. [Proc. West. Pharmacol. Soc. 45: 101-103 (2002)].

Purslane is also said to be a natural remedy for insomnia. It has many of the same health benefits as other leafy greens.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS AND PREPARATIONS:

In the market, buy fresh and healthy-looking purslane; look carefully for mold, yellow or dark spots as they indicate inferior quality. Go for organic produce whenever feasible.

Wash fresh leaves and stem in clean cold running water in order to remove any sand and insecticide/fungicide residues. After removing from water, mop it with a soft cloth to remove any moisture in them before storing in the refrigerator.

Purslane can be kept in the frige for about 3-4 days but should be eaten while the leaves are fresh and not wilted.

The stems and flower buds are also edible. Trim the tough stems near roots using a sharp knife. Cook under low temperature for a shorter period in order to preserve the majority of nutrients. Although antioxidant properties are significantly decreased on frying and boiling, its minerals, carotenes, and flavonoids may remain intact with steam cooking.

Here are some serving tips:

• Fresh, raw leaves can be used as salad and as vegetable juice.
• Fresh, tender leaves are used in salads. Sautéed and gently stewed stems and leaves served as a side dish with fish and poultry.
• It has also been used in soup and curry (Goni soppu curry) preparations and eaten with rice and ragi cake (ragi mudde) in many mouthwatering purslane recipes in South Indian region, especially in parts of former Mysore province of Karnataka state.
• Stir-fried and mixed with other like-minded greens such as spinach and vegetables, it makes favorite dishes.

Purslane contains oxalic acid, a naturally-occurring substance found in some vegetables, which may crystallize as oxalate stones in the urinary tract in some people. 100 g fresh leaves contain 1.31 g of oxalic acid, more than in spinach (0.97 g/100 g) and cassava (1.26 g/100 g). It is, therefore, people with known oxalate urinary tract stones are advised to avoid eating purslane and certain vegetables belonging to Amaranthaceae and Brassica family. Adequate intake of water is therefore encouraged to maintain normal urine output.

WORTH TO SHARE BAKA ETO NA ANG SAGOT SA MGA PASYENTENG MAY DIABETES!

A new study has confirmed the anti-diabetic properties of the purslane herb extract Portulaca oleracea L.

Purslane
Researchers at the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria, led by Julian Weghuber PhD, investigated extracts prepared from seven different plants reported to exhibit anti-diabetic effects via GLUT4 (glucose transporter protein type 4) translocation-inducing properties. Induction of GLUT4 translocation without insulin is considered a key aspect to decrease elevated blood glucose levels in persons with diabetes.

In vitro models

By combining established in vitro models with modern fluorescence microscopy and atomic force microscopy, the effect of purslane and other herb extracts on cellular glucose uptake has been studied extensively.

Reducing blood glucose levels

Researchers found that only two substances, among which one is purslane extract, led to enhanced GLUT4 translocation including plasma membrane insertion, and glucose uptake in established cell models. Moreover, both extracts resulted in a distribution and clustering of GLUT4 in the plasma membrane similar to that of insulin, and appeared to reduce blood glucose levels in a living organism.

Purslane

Frutarom Health BU manufactures Portusana, a scientifically supported and unique purslane extract that captures the benefits of this ancient plant. Rich in valuable nutrients, purslane is known as a healthy culinary plant throughout the world, and is treasured for its anti-diabetic properties in Near Eastern folk medicine. Frutarom Health BU’s purslane extract, Portusana, was included in the Weghuber study.
