The Absolute Best Ways To Keep Scallions Fresh
By SABRINA PALMIERI
In the refrigerator
Keeping your scallions in a jar of water in the refrigerator is one of the most effective storage methods and can keep the green onions fresh for more than a week. Just place the stalks in a jar with about an inch of water and then cover with a plastic bag.
Damp paper towel
Per My Korean Kitchen, you simply have to wet a paper towel and then use it to wrap the stalks. The outlet notes that it is super important that the moisture level is controlled — too much water will cause the scallions to rot, while too little water will cause them to dry out.
Keeping them on the windowsill
This is undoubtedly the best way to keep scallions fresh because they will last almost forever and keep growing while being stored, creating an inexhaustible source of scallions. Just place your green onions in a jar with enough water to cover their roots.
