I miss-used lemongrass.
I had no idea that you were supposed to use the "heart", so i've chopped of the outer parts and put in my "stew", that i'm gonna eat in like 10 mins, because i'm huuuungry.

So, is there anything wrong with eating the outer parts?
They can't be poisonous or anything, right?
Can i have my dinner (it smells sooooo good..)

ok i just ate it

tried to pick the pices of the grass out, becuase they were quite tough. there wasn't a lot of it, i chopped maybe and inch of it, put it in a spiceblend and used two pinches of spiceblend...

you can always use Google or any other search engine for Q's like this if you don't get an answer in time...

yeah, i did google it, and at least it doesnt say anything anywhere about not eating certain parts of it out of safety reasons, and drugs.com classes it as "low toxicity". The only thing i did find was that lemongrass often carries salmonella *nooooo*, but hopefully i'll be fine. I don't think i actually ate more than a few millimeter pieces of it anyway.
