I checked the Met and that new "Asian" grocery but neither of them carry lemongrass.

This soup ain't gonna season itself...i don't think.

    Fairway in Red Hook usually has it if you're mobile or over that way.

    I am not sure but what about the Green Market at GAP on Saturdays?

    It seems to be a regular item now at the Coop, along with fresh horseradish, burdock, and salsify. It's the gnarly section of produce, end of the aisle, top shelf.

    I don't think I've seen it at the Greenmarket, except for fresh plants to grow in the spring/summer. I don't know that I've even seen it at Union Sq Greenmarket with the other Asian ingredients, come to think of it. Have you?

    Thanks for the input. I'll check out Natureland. I never think about going there for some reason. And if they don't have it, onwards to Union Market. Fairway is a trek and the Coop and I aren't on speaking terms.

    Hope that you found the lemongrass by now--I know that Natural Land has it--in the cooler that's against the wall closest to the street.

    It's kinda sad how well I know the layout of that store.

    ...and surprisingly, FreshDirect.
