What it is

Green onions, also known as scallions, are the immature stalks of the *Allium fistulosum* plant. They are harvested before the bulb fully develops, retaining their long, green leaves and a small white base. They are grown year-round and are a common ingredient in many cuisines.

Why it's used

Green onions are primarily used for their mild onion flavor and fresh, pungent aroma. They add a bright, savory note to dishes and are often used as a garnish. They are commonly found in salads, stir-fries, soups, dips, and as a topping for various savory foods.

Health notes

Green onions are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. They are a source of vitamins and minerals. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated green onions as a food ingredient. Evidence does not suggest adverse health effects from typical dietary consumption.
