Scallions

 

Availability: July-October 

Storage tips: Refrigerate in a plastic bag for at least one week.  Keep green tops covered to prevent wilting!

How to eat: Fresh scallions, or green onions, are a real treat in the summer! The whole plant is edible, and is great minced to top a soup or salad or to add to stir-fries.

How to preserve:  Freeze them!  Simply chop them up raw, throw them in a ziplock bag and freeze.  Pop them out and throw them into soups and stir-fries later.  Easy!
