Lemongrass essential oil with scientific names
Cymbopogon citratus or Andropogon citratus oil is extracted through the process
of steam distillation of dried lemongrass. The main constituents of its
essential oil are myrcene, citronellal, geranyl acetate, nerol, geraniol,
neral, limonene, and citral. As the name implies, lemongrass smells just like
lemons, but it is milder, sweeter, and far less sour. This grass is used in
countless beverages (including tea), desserts, and other forms of culinary
creations as a flavoring agent when fresh lemon is not available or is not to
be used because of its potent flavor. It is widely used in Chinese and Thai
recipes.
