Organic lemongrass flakes 2–4 mm from Egypt

Product description

Biova organic lemongrass comes from certified organic farming in Egypt and is supplied here as evenly cut green flakes with a particle size of 2–4 mm. The dried pieces look similar to herbs and release a clear, fresh citrus aroma.

Gentle drying preserves most of the essential oils, resulting in an easy-to-dose, aroma-stable lemongrass seasoning. The granulated, coarse structure is ideal for use in foodservice, food production and artisan manufacturing.

In curries, soups, wok dishes or tea, Biova organic lemongrass in this fine granular cut can be used in many ways and disperses evenly throughout the dish. This gives you a fresh, lemony note without having to remove or chop whole stalks.

Origin

The lemongrass grows in Egypt under warm, sunny conditions that promote a pronounced citrus aroma. The dry climate and suitable soils support even growth and high-quality organic raw material.

Cultivation / processing / harvest

Organic cultivation follows the principles of ecological agriculture and uses no synthetic crop protection agents. After harvesting, the stalks are cleaned, gently dried and then granulated into 2–4 mm flakes.

Characteristics

The granulated / crushed / coarse cut clearly distinguishes this variant from whole stalks and ensures rapid release of aroma. As green flakes, Biova organic lemongrass blends visually well into spice mixes, teas and both bulk and retail formats.

Differences in origin and processing

Lemongrass from Egypt has a clear, fresh aroma with a pleasant citrus focus. Processing into flakes, compared with coarse pieces or whole stalks, provides a finer texture and makes it easier to use in dry blends and liquid applications.

Taste & aroma

On the nose, the lemongrass shows an intense, fresh citrus aroma with light grassy notes. On the palate it is clear, uplifting and lemony, but without the pronounced acidity of fresh lemons.

Suggested uses

• Seasoning Asian-style soups, curries, wok dishes and stews
• For aromatic tea blends, iced teas, lemonades and infused water
• As an ingredient in spice blends, marinades, chutneys, stocks and dressings
