Of course I know that all ingredients should ideally be purchesed as
close the the use date as possible for maximum freshness. However, I would
like to know how long lemon grass remains useable. Is it like most produce,
which must be used within a few days of purchase, or is it like garlic or
cinnamon, which can potentially be stored for some time. I would like to
buy enough to have some on hand when I need it.

Thanks,
Adam
