Growing Onions From Scraps

Easy
I may never buy onions again. Growing Onions from Scraps is easy! It has been over a month since I got a CSA delivery, but in that last box was a bunch of green onions...
As I made dinner one night, I chopped an onion down to the white bulb and stared at it, appraising it. The roots seemed strong, the onion crunchy and fresh…so I stuck it in a tiny glass with a bit of water and left it. Within 24 hours there was new, green growth!
A few nights later I used another green onion and treated it the same – and again, within one day, there was visible growth.
Lovely onions minced with fresh herbs from my garden, ready to be added to a hot pan and sauteed with chicken to top a spring green salad.
