Keeping Green Onions Fresh for a Month: A Simple TrickGreen onions are a versatile ingredient in many dishes, but they can spoil quickly if not stored properly. Instead of putting them straight into the fridge, follow this simple trick to keep them fresh for up to a month.
The Trick: Store Green Onions in a Jar with Water1. Trim the Roots: Trim the roots of the green onions slightly, but make sure to leave enough of the white base intact to hold the green stalks together.
2. Place in a Jar: Stand the green onions upright in a jar with about an inch of water at the bottom. The water should cover the white bases but not the green stalks.
3. Cover Loosely: Cover the jar loosely with a plastic bag or wrap it with plastic wrap to maintain humidity and prevent drying out.
4. Refrigerate: Store the jar in the refrigerator, changing the water every few days to keep it fresh.
