Spring onions, also known as Scallions, have a milder taste than most onions and are related to garlic, shallot, leek, chive, and Chinese onions.
They can be used raw or cooked, and while some cooks discard the darker green tops, the whole thing can be eaten. Often used in Asian cooking.
Spring onion is great to use in dishes where you want a hint of onion flavor but not overly strong. They can be cooked whole, either steamed or fried, but are usually chopped finely and used in a quiche, salads, stir-fry, wraps, soups and stews.
They make for a great garnish on pizza, egg and cheese dishes.
