Green long onions, a winter type


I mentioned the green long onions last Monday for Orange salad: healthy, fresh and fanciful. I said I was not sure you could find them out of Italy. It's better I post a picture, just to be sure you know exactly what we are talking about. It's a typical winter type of onion, our markets are full of it. Hope you can buy it at home as it is light and tasty. This picture was taken this morning at the main market in Catania. You cut the grey filaments, skin it from the external green part and use only the white one.
