Not sure if it is worth expanding this into a subsection. One point I wanted to make was yes it is used in asian cuisine however in most dishes it is removed after cooking but just beofre serving. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yiwentang (talkcontribs) 18:45, 3 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

In Thai food it is generally sliced thinly and eaten with the food. In soups it is left in, and some people eat it, many do not. 76.105.216.34 (talk) 06:34, 15 February 2015 (UTC)Reply

Etymology

edit

Is this correct? Cymbopogon Kymbe: bowl, or drinking cup (Greek). Derived Term: Cymbal. Pogon: beard (Greek). This refers to the shape of the flower. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Moadeeb (talkcontribs) 11:17, 3 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

Citronella Grass

edit

This page says "Besides oil production, citronella grass is also used for culinary purposes, as a flavoring." However, the actual Cymbopogon nardus (Citronella grass) page says it's not edible. Which is it? Indium (talk) 02:33, 7 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
