Burlap & Barrel Drumstick Lemongrass 1.8 oz glass jar

Our Drumstick Lemongrass (Sả Đùi Gà) is named after the shape of the plant, which tapers from a wide base like a chicken leg. After being harvested, our Drumstick Lemongrass is gently dried and ground into powder for maximum surface area (and convenience!).

Add just a little bit to marinades, soups, stews, stir-fries and sweets for a citrus perfume. You can also swap this for fresh lemongrass at about a 4:1 ratio, or dried lemongrass at about a 2:1 ratio.

However you use it, this will become one of your new favorite spices.

SOURCING

We've partnered with DACE, a social enterprise in Vietnam, to connect with the farmers growing our Drumstick Lemongrass.

The Drumstick Lemongrass (along with our Blue Turmeric, Purple Stripe Garlic, Buffalo Ginger and Red Turmeric) is grown by communities of Hmong farmers in Vietnam's northern highlands, who are learning to grow higher-value crops and transitioning to organic and regenerative agricultural methods. We're honored to support them in that work, and to share their aromatic lemongrass with you!
