About Green onion stalk

Green onion stalks, also known as scallions, are a versatile vegetable widely used in cuisines across the globe, particularly in Asian, Mexican, and Mediterranean dishes. These slender stalks are the green, leafy top of immature onions and are prized for their mild, slightly sweet flavor. Packed with essential nutrients, they are an excellent source of vitamins A, K, and C, which support immunity, vision, and bone health. They also contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that may help reduce chronic disease risk. Low in calories and fat-free, green onion stalks are a heart-healthy addition to meals. Their fiber content aids digestion, while compounds like allicin may contribute to improved cardiovascular health. However, for individuals prone to digestive sensitivity, consuming them in moderation is recommended. Whether raw in salads or cooked into soups and stir-fries, green onion stalks add flavor and nutrition to countless dishes.
