About Bosui

Bosui, commonly known as spring onion or scallion, is a versatile vegetable widely used in Asian, European, and American cuisines. Native to China, this onion variety has long green stalks with slender white bulbs and a milder taste compared to regular onions. Packed with nutrients, bosui is a good source of vitamins A, C, and K, as well as antioxidants that support immunity and skin health. Its dietary fiber aids digestion, while its low calorie content makes it a healthy addition to meals. Bosui contains compounds like allicin, which may have heart-protective and anti-inflammatory properties. Often used to garnish soups, stir-fries, and salads, it adds flavor without excess fat or sodium. However, as part of the onion family, it may cause gas in sensitive individuals. Overall, bosui is a nutritious, flavorful ingredient with roots in global culinary traditions.
