Product Description

Green onions/scallions are slender, long-stemmed vegetables with small white bulbs and hollow green leaves. Unlike mature onions, scallions have a milder flavor, making them ideal for raw salads, garnishes, and light cooking. Both the green stalks and white bulbs are edible, providing a subtle onion taste without overwhelming dishes.

Our scallions are carefully graded to ensure uniform size, color, and freshness. Whether you are a large-scale food processor, wholesaler, or retailer, Linas Trading can supply scallions in the volume and packaging your business requires.
