WHAT ABOUT THE CHOPPED-OFF SPRING ONIONS?
Some of the top greens are going to be cut off for uniformity and to fit in your air fryer basket. But there is no need to throw these away — place them in a container with water for up to one week, changing out the water every three days. These are a perfect flavour addition when making a bone broth or soup base.
