Is there a difference between scallions and green onions?
Scallions are a variety of young onion also referred to as green onions or spring onions. A scallion is made up of a white base that has not fully developed into a bulb and long green stalks that resemble chives. Both the white and the green parts are used in recipes and eaten both raw and cooked.
Green onions and scallions are the same things! They are harvested very young from the regular bulb-forming onions we are familiar with, or they can come from other varieties that never form bulbs. Scallions are long, with a white stem end that does not bulge out.
