Replacements

Green Onions (Whole Bunch)

Green onions, also known as scallions or spring onions, are a versatile member of the Allium family. Originating in Asia, they have been cultivated for thousands of years and are now used globally. Their flavor is mild and reminiscent of onions but with a subtle, fresh grassy note. The white base is slightly more pungent and firm, while the green tops are tender and offer a gentle sweetness. Green onions have a crisp texture that adds a delightful crunch to dishes. In cooking, they are often used raw to preserve their delicate flavor and texture, though they can also be sautéed or grilled, softening and mellowing their taste. They are excellent for garnishing or as a last-minute addition to soups, stir-fries, and salads, imparting a fresh, vibrant touch.
