Approximate kitchen reference. Not a lab label. Brands and cuts vary.

Origin

East Asian allium tradition; now grocery-standard worldwide.

Herbal & culinary notes

Milder allium chemistry than bulb onions. Often easier raw. Used in folk cold remedies as a warm broth aromatic.

How to store

Fridge crisper in a breathable bag, or stand roots in a jar of water (change water often). Use within a week for best quality.

Food safety

Rinse well. Grit hides in the layers. Keep cut greens cold.

Food hazards

Like other produce, can pick up soil microbes. Wash before eating raw.
