Green Onions
Green onions have a mild onion flavor and tender green tops. They cook quickly and can also be used fresh as a garnish.
Identity
Fast onion flavor
Add early for aroma or late for freshness.
The white and pale green parts can go into the pan with aromatics. Dark green tops are softer and work well near the end or as a garnish.
