Spring onions (also known as scallions) aren't "made" in the sense of manufacturing. They are grown. However, the reference query explains how to prepare spring onions for cooking. Here's how to prepare them:
Preparing Spring Onions
-
Wash: Thoroughly wash the spring onions under cool running water to remove any dirt or debris.
-
Trim:
- Roots: Cut off the root end of the spring onion.
- Ragged Ends: Trim any wilted or damaged tips from the green tops.
-
Slicing:
- Bulb: Slice the white bulb into rounds. The thickness depends on your recipe and preference.
- Green Tops: There are a few ways to cut the green tops:
- Rounds: Use kitchen scissors or a knife to cut the green tops into rounds. This is a common and versatile method.
- Lengthwise Strips: For a more delicate presentation, slice the green tops lengthwise, then lengthwise again to create thin strips. This is good for garnishing.
That's it! Your spring onions are now prepared and ready to use in your dishes.
