Exceptional nutritional value
Green onions (scallions), bulb and green tops, values for the raw vegetable.
Green onions, also called scallions or spring onions, are young onions eaten whole, bulb and green tops, sliced raw into salads and soups or used as a garnish. A 15 g stalk has about 5 kcal and about 31 µg of vitamin K, roughly a quarter of the daily value; other nutrients are small at this amount. The green tops are milder than the white bulb and are usually added at the end of cooking.
