In stockAlso known as scallions or green onions, spring onions are in fact very young onions, Both the long, slender green tops and the small white bulb are edible, and are good either raw or cooked. They have a similar flavour to onions, but are much milder. Specially used to enhance the flavor and taste of the dish.
How to Select
Avoid slimy or wilting spring onions. The skin covering a spring onion' bulb can be either white or deep red fading to white at the roots - there's no significant difference in taste. Similarly, the bulb can be quite pronounced or more like a leek in shape, with no noticeable swelling; again, this has no impact on flavour.
