Aromatic culinary stalk used in Southeast Asian and other cooking.
What it is
How we read a bare request for this
Fresh stalk is the ordinary culinary reading, while responsible frozen stalk or chopped lemongrass remains valid when dish handling supports it.
Also called
lemon grass, lemongrass, sả, serai
culinary stalk
Forms that matter
Fresh lemongrass stalksUsual form
whole fresh stalks
Not interchangeable with: citronella.
Frozen chopped lemongrass
frozen culinary pieces
Not interchangeable with: fresh without handling note.
Lemongrass — dried
Variant retained only where the exact reviewed title/form signature establishes the stated distinction.
When the dish decides
Tom yum
Prefer fresh lemongrass stalks for bruising or infusion; responsibly frozen culinary lemongrass remains acceptable when handling supports it, while paste/dried forms require explicit recipe adjustment.
Citronella and lemon balm are not lemongrass.
Where to look — by form
Each of these is recorded against one particular form or product, named on the card. None of them is a claim about Lemongrass in general, and none is a claim about any other form. Search a form by name to source it as your actual request.

Known source within the stated scope; this is not a guarantee of current stock. Currently listed on a first-party surface; a listing is not confirmed shelf presence. Evidence applies to a chain catalog or company program, not automatically to every location. Evidence observation date 2026-09-12 (Patel Brothers).
Also: the evidence may be out of date for this kind of information; this is a chain listing with no local stock signal
Evidence used for this claim
On 2026-09-12, the retained Patel Brothers surface recorded the exact item 'Lemon Grass (Lemongrass)' at Chain-wide scope. This establishes a dated catalog relationship, not physical shelf stock, on-hand quantity, or future availability.
Rows were read from the first-party Patel Brothers chain online catalog. The catalog is chain-wide: no row named or bound a branch, so none establishes stock at 420 Harding Place or anywhere else, and the separately accepted Nashville store identity does not localize it.
