lemongrass and lime leaves?

Madisen

Later this week, I'm making DH a thai coconut soup that he loves.  He loves it at Thai restaurants, this will be the first time I attempt making it at home.  I've got everything I need except for fresh lemongrass (not paste) and lime leaves.  Can I get these at Native Sun?  Or should I hit up an ethnic cuisine little market?

TIA.

Good question. I'd call Holly's nursery for the lemongrass. Lime leaves, no idea. I haven't seen them at Native Sun, but you could always give them a call first to see.

I have no idea, but if it turns out as yummy as it sounds, will you post the recipe for the rest of us?

We've got a bunch of lemongrass growing in our yard. If we were closer, I'd give you some!

Dang.. our lime tree died last year, or I could've helped you there.

That sounds really interesting! Good luck with it!

Yeah, we used to have a really large lemongrass plant, but the 2 record winters in a row finished it off. That stuff is really tough. It's pretty much tasty pampas grass.

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll definitely post the recipe here after getting DH's verdict on it.
