How to Prep a Spring Onion?

Published in Cooking Basics 1 min read

To prep a spring onion, trim the root end and any wilted or damaged parts, then optionally trim the green end for a clean surface.

Here's a more detailed breakdown:

  1. Gather your spring onions: Select fresh spring onions.

  2. Trim the roots: Cut off the root end of the spring onion.

  3. Remove any wilted or damaged parts: Inspect the spring onion and cut off any parts that are wilted, slimy, or discolored, from either the white or green parts.

  4. Trim the green ends (Optional): Trim the very top of the green end if it appears dry or damaged to expose a fresh cut. This provides a cleaner surface for chopping and using.

You now have a prepped spring onion ready to be sliced, chopped, or used whole in your recipe.
