About Spring onion

Spring onions, also known as scallions or green onions, are versatile vegetables commonly used across various cuisines, from Asian stir-fries to Mediterranean salads. These slender, green-topped plants are harvested young, before the bulb fully develops, giving them a milder flavor than mature onions. Rich in vitamins A, C, and K, spring onions also provide essential minerals like potassium and calcium. They are low in calories and high in fiber, making them a great choice for weight management and digestive health. Spring onions contain antioxidants that help combat free radicals and support immune function. Their crisp texture and subtle sharpness add depth to raw dishes, soups, and marinades. However, some individuals sensitive to alliums may experience digestive discomfort. Overall, spring onions are a nutritious and flavorful addition to a balanced diet, enhancing dishes with their fresh, zesty profile and health-promoting properties.
