I'm ALWAYS using scallions when I cook. They might be one of my favorite ingredients in a good stir fry but I hate having to go to the store constantly to buy them. So, I decided to get the most out of one bunch!
Leave the bottom part of your scallion intact when you cut it. I left about 3 or 4 inches from the roots up. Place them in a container, fill with water until it almost reaches the part of the scallion that turns green and put in a sunny window. Now you wait!
Day 1:
Right after I saved the bottoms and put them in my water container.
Day 5:
I will be using these in my stir fry tonight!
too cool! i've done this with green onions before, and have ben thinking of doing it with leeks...your success with scallions is encouraging! :)
