Chopped scallions, also known as green onions, are a versatile ingredient widely used in various cuisines, including Chinese, Korean, Mexican, and American cooking. They have a mild onion flavor and are composed of a green leafy top and a white bulb stem. Scallions are low in calories and rich in essential nutrients such as vitamin K, vitamin C, and antioxidants. They contain compounds that may support immune health and have anti-inflammatory properties. Their high vitamin K content contributes to bone health, while their sulfur compounds may promote heart health. Scallions are easy to incorporate into stir-fries, soups, salads, or as a garnish. Though generally very healthy, consuming them raw may cause mild digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals. A flavorful addition to many dishes, scallions bring nutrition and aroma that elevate meals.
