🧊 How to Keep Them Fresh
-
Scallions/Green Onions: Wrap in a slightly damp paper towel, place in a plastic bag, and store in the crisper drawer. OR, stand them upright in a jar with an inch of water, cover loosely with a bag, and refrigerate.
-
Spring Onions: Store like scallions, or trim the greens and place the bulbs in a jar of water in the fridge.
-
Chives: Wrap in a dry paper towel, place in a sealed bag, and refrigerate. For long-term storage, chop and freeze in an ice cube tray with water or oil.
Final Tip: When in doubt, remember this rule of thumb: No bulb? It’s mild. A small bulb? It’s stronger. Hollow stems? It’s for garnish. Happy cooking
