Scallions in Ice water...just dab then in salt..and go .

This ....reminds me, of my Ol Man .

Yep!

Absolutely!

I might try that when I’m 70.

Love eating them.

LoL.. your missing out grasshopper...

Been doing that since a kid.
Also like to mix water and vinegar with a little sugar and salt and pepper, let them soak a little.

Now that brings back memories of dad eating those as a snack and watching the World Series…when I got older I would partake as well…haven’t had any for a long time.

dad love green onions this way

My dad too. ca. 1965

A bit off topic Nessy but I tried your brine and a fresh cut pork loin into thick chop size slices yesterday. It was good eating and quite tender. Been a while since I have cooked chops but it was worth the time in prepping them. I let mine marinate for 6 plus hours. I was busy doing other things most of the day but it still worked out well.

Yep…..been doing that forever

I put salt right in the water and they suck that up and get the salty taste right in them.

Yup...like you said ..well worth the little effort.

Glad you liked it.

Well ..it looks like a lot of our fathers enjoyed scallions this way...

Brings back ...good memories

My mom loved those things; she'd grow them in the garden then walkout with s saltshaker pick on peel off the outer dirty skin salt it and eat it right there in the yard

Grandpa ate them this way.

Yes

Oh yeah!

Yup, and onion sandwiches too
