香茅，青柠檬（滑皮）和泰国柠檬（粗皮）Lemongrass with
Green Lemon (smooth skin) & Kaffir Lemon (bumpy skin)
香茅不只是可以用来烹煮而已！它的妙用还不止呢！
加水煮成的香茅水，加糖可以用来做香柠饮料；
加海盐还可以做成舒缓脚底的炮浇水；
剩余的，等凉了还可以倒进芳香机里头，让满室飘香，还能驱蚊呢！
lemongrass is not only good to use in cooking Thai dishes for it special aroma; but in fact it can also be use for foot bath or room scent too! the nice smell not only scares way the unwanted mosquitoes but using it in foot bath also helps to sooth your tired feet.
boiled 1 kilo of cut lemongrass in water till its aromatic.
use half: pour into a basin, throw in a handful of sea salt, mix well. wait till its just warm enough to put your tired feet in and soak for 15mins to 20mins. you can even use the lemongrass to scrub away the dead skin cells on your feet too! don't waste it!
the other half: when cooled, pour into your "aroma machine", turn it on and let it spin the lemongrass water. soon you will find your room is filled with nice lemoney smells!
