Shoots that are similar to scallions.

Do I use both the bulb and the scallion part? Just the bulb? I only cook with vidalia onions so I don't ever come across anything other than the bulb part.

Going to use the onions and the ears of corn I have left in a corn chowder (because nothing says "beat the summer heat" like a hot bowl of corn chowder...)

Responses:

sounds more like spring onions ...walla walla are like grapefruit sized -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 22, 13:16
You can use the whole thing but the bulb and the scallion parts will taste different. -- nm - Krusty Jul 22, 11:49 13

- I don't know purple onions. Do you mean red? - Krusty Jul 22, 11:55

  - Yeah, they're 13 gallon bags. Nothing too big or too small. - Krusty Jul 22, 11:54 9
    - I missed this. We make one kitchen bag of garbage per week. - Spawn Jul 22, 12:07 6
      - We make three. One recycling bag of each type every two weeks. - Krusty Jul 22, 12:12 5
        
        *So* glad we do not have to seperate our recycling. -- nm - Spawn Jul 22, 12:14 4
        
        we separate cans and plastic and glass (we do glass by color, even). we have bins, though, down the alley - amanda Jul 22, 12:31 1
        
        Not weird as that many types would take up a ton of space in your kitchen. -- nm - Spawn Jul 22, 12:33
        
        Just paper and plastic. In the summer I bring the plastic down every week or we get fruit flies. - Krusty Jul 22, 12:30 1
        
        We rinse and air dry. We have a basket in the closet and when it is full dump it in the rolling bin in the garage. They pick it up every two weeks. -- nm - Spawn Jul 22, 12:32
    - I dunno, fast food creates plenty of garbage too. -- nm - zork Jul 22, 12:01 1
      - I rarely took it home. I would eat it at the "restaurant". But yes, it does create a lot of garbage. - Krusty Jul 22, 12:04
