I usually make only enough for one or two servings so half a green onion is more than enough. Sheldon might use two bunches, but would have enough for a platoon. |

No platoon here, those days are long gone, that was more than fifty years ago. Part of a raw green onion imparts as much onion flavor as a whole raw green onion. I never use part of any onion, I choose one the size needed for the dish. When I buy onions I choose them in several sizes, I never save part of an onion, I use it all. I see no point in slicing into an onion for just a wee bit... that's what dehy onions are for.... I keep a jar of dehy onions in the pantry for the same reason I keep dehy garlic. Anyway I'd no sooner use part of an onion as part of a banana. Thinking about it it's been years since I've bought green onions. Lately I only buy sweet onions like Vidalias, they're available in various sizes and I choose an assortment. |
