About

The scallion (also known as spring onion , salad onion , onion sticks or green onion in many countries) is an edible plant of the genus Allium. The upper green portion is hollow.

It lacks a fully developed root bulb. Harvested for their taste, they are milder than most onions. They may be cooked or used raw as a part of salads or Asian recipes.

Diced scallions are used in soup, noodle and seafood dishes, as well as sandwiches, curries or as part of a stir fry. To make many Eastern sauces, the bottom quarter-inch of scallions are commonly removed before use.
