Spring Onions

Spring Onions

EverydayFresh

Spring onions are fresh allium vegetables characterized by their slender white bulbs and long green stalks, both of which are edible. They offer a crisp texture and milder flavor than mature onions, with the white base providing subtle pungency while the green tops deliver fresh herbal notes. These onions are particularly rich in vitamin K and antioxidants like quercetin, and are frequently used raw in salads, garnishes, or briefly cooked in stir-fries and soups to preserve their delicate flavor.
