Scallions Recipes

Scallions, also called green onions, add a fresh, mild onion flavor to everything from stir-fries and fried rice to tacos, soups, salads, and noodle bowls. Both the crisp white bottoms and tender green tops are edible, making them a versatile ingredient for quick weeknight recipes.

Use the white and pale green parts when you want gentle onion flavor cooked into a dish, and save the dark green tops for finishing. A handful of sliced scallions can brighten rich foods like eggs, dumplings, grilled meats, ramen, baked potatoes, and creamy dips.

Scallions are especially useful in recipes that need freshness without the sharp bite of raw onion. They work well as a garnish, aromatic base, or quick flavor booster in sauces, marinades, dressings, and savory pancakes.
