How to use it
Unlike regular onions, this variety is usually harvested before a large bulb forms, so the entire young plant is eaten. Because it grows quickly, it can be sown several times during the season to ensure a continuous harvest.
Spring onion is ready to harvest after approximately 60–90 days, depending on growing conditions. It’s best grown in sunny locations with well-drained soil.
Spring onions are widely used in cooking because of their mild flavour. Both the white stem and the green tops are edible.
They can be used:
Raw in salads
As a topping for soups, noodles, or rice dishes
In dips or spreads
Cooked in stir-fries or wok dishes
Lightly grilled or sautéed with vegetables
