What part of the green onion do you throw away?
What part of broccoli do you throw away
what part of beets do you throw away

You get the idea. When you are using fresh vegetables, what part do
you use and what do you discard?

I don't discard any of it actually.

I replant the green onion bulb to make more green onions. I rarely buy
them because of that. I make vegetable broth from most peels and root
portions. I LIKE the stems of Broccoli. I add the papery onion skins
to the vegetable broth so it colors up nice.

The vegetable broth is generally made every 2 weeks from bits gathered
over the last 2 weeks.

That is some serious stuff right there. Do you eat the paper or filter?

I use both parts of the green onion, depending on the dish. I'm
more likely to use the green and discard the white because I
generally eat them raw.

I use all parts of broccoli, except the leaves. I peel the stems,
which are the best part.

I don't eat dirt chunks.

I cut off about 1/8" off the bottom to remove the root and then use
about 80% of the rest and toss the last inch or so of green.
I eat the florets of broccoli and the little bit of the stem they are
attached to. I don't eat the stalks, but my wife saves them and eats
them. When I trim the extreme tips of beans at both ends. While snow
peas I slice the ends most of the way through and then pull them off and
hope that any stringy spine comes off. That saves me from have those
strings hanging halfway down my through. We usually roast (butternut)
squash and then scoop out the flesh down to the skin.

None of it. If I buy fresh broccoli the stem is trimmed then cut into
bite-size pieces and cooked with the florets.

I only buy canned pickled beets so I can't answer how I'd trim and cook
fresh beets.

Carrots get a quick wash and a light peel. Potatoes are also washed then
peeled unless I'm making potato salad. Then they are just washed and the
peelings become part of the finished dish (red potatoes). Radishes get a
washing and a light trim of the top and bottom.

How much of the green onion I use depends on what I am making- 3 bean
salad only gets the bulb and a bit up from there, but scallion
pancakes go way, way up.

I only cut off the bottom of the broccoli "trees," but if in a whole,
fresh broccoli bouquet, I do cut off the thickest lower part of the
main stem.

The only beets around here come in a jar and are pickled. If I pickle
them myself, I now buy whole, cooked and peeled beets from Costco.

There seem to be several articles the past couple of weeks talking
about using the usual discards from fruits and veggies. One article
talked about using the banana peels. I confess I did not read past
that headline. Nope. Not me.

Never would have thought to do that with pancakes. I use fruit like
bananas, apples or berries but that would be a nice change.

Indeed, they would. I have been known to serve potato pancakes with a
dollop of sour cream sprinkled with scallions.

For the OP- scallion pancakes are not one's basic bfast treat.

Here is a favorite version:

FLAKY SCALLION PANCAKES
From A Spoonful of Ginger by Nina Simonds

3 cups cake flour
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons corn oil
1 3/4 cups boiling water
1/4 cup or more all-purpose flour, if necessary, for kneading
1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
3/4 cup minced scallion greens
3/4 cup canola or corn oil
Makes 24 pancakes

Stir the flours and salt in a mixing bowl with a wooden spoon. Add
the corn oil and the boiling water, and stir until a rough dough
forms. If the dough is too soft, knead in about 1/4 cup more flour.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5
minutes, or until smooth, kneading in more all-purpose flour as
necessary. Cover with a cloth or wrap in plastic and let rest for 30
minutes, or longer if possible.

On a very lightly floured work surface, roll the dough into a long
snakelike roll about 1 inch in diameter. Cut the roll into 24 pieces.
Keep the unused dough covered with a damp towel as you work.
With a rolling pin, roll out one piece of dough, cut side down on the
work surface, into a 5-inch circle. Brush the top with a little
sesame oil and sprinkle with some of the minced scallion greens. Roll
up the circle like a jelly roll and pinch the ends to seal. Flatten
the roll slightly with the rolling pin, and coil it into a snail
shape, with the seam on the inside. Pinch the end to secure it and
set aside on a lightly floured surface. Prepare the remaining
pancakes, and let them rest for 30 minutes uncovered.

Reflour the work surface and roll each coiled pancake out to a 4-inch
circle. Place them on a lightly floured tray. Let them rest for 30
minutes uncovered, or longer if possible. Preheat the oven to 200
degrees F.

Heat a large, heavy skillet, add the oil, and heat to 350 degrees F.
Put a few of the pancakes in the pan, not touching, and fry over
medium heat, turning once, until golden brown and crisp on both sides,
about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a spatula and drain briefly in a
colander, then transfer to absorbent paper. Arrange the cooked
pancakes on a cookie sheet and keep them warm in the oven while you
fry the remaining pancakes, reheating the oil between batches. Serve
immediately or keep warm in the oven.

I'd probably not take the time to make them but if offered, I'd
certainly eat them. Look good.

I asked because I was astonished to sometimes see TV chefs toss the
entire stem of the broccoli or specifiy to only use the green or white
of green onions and toss the rest away.

Nothing vegetative really gets tossed here. Depending on what it is,
it goes into a stock pot or into the compost.

I've always had a large plastic zip bag in the freezer. That's where
celery stumps,carrot ends, wrinkled mushrooms, oldish onions etc go.
When my daughter was young she knew when she came home from school to
start soup for supper with the veggie bag. I also have a zip bag of
trimmings from chicken in the freezer. The two bags make excellent
broth for chicken soup.
I later learned that she still makes soup that way and that she taught
her two boys to make soup that way.

It is nice when one sees kitchen favorites passed onto the next
generation.

Cool! My mother hated to cook, so that's a nice thing to pass along and
a tradition kept up.

That being said, I rarely have enough celery stumps or leaves, carrots
ends, wrinkled mushrooms or oldish onions to go into a bag in the
freezer these days. When I want to make chicken soup/stock (or any,
really) soup I have to buy fresh veggies and only enough for the amount
of stock/soup I want to make. I'm not likely to save a bunch of trimmings.

When I make broccoli soup I include the stems (peeled and sliced). The
tough ends and peels go into the garbage disposal. Ditto the green
cauliflower stems and the stem and tough outer leaves of cabbage.

I'm going to have to try broccoli soup again some day. I tried once
and the broccoli seemed so strong.

My wife gets a little upset once in a while when I make chicken, tuna or
salmon salad and use only the white part of a green onion. The reason I
do that is because I figure that I have enough and don't want to
overpower the salad with the onion. If I was making more I would use
more of it, right up almost to the top.

Maybe you can make chicken 2 days in a row. The first day it's called
white-onion chicken and the second day it's called green-onion
chicken. No more upset wife.
