    How to Select and Store Scallions
    Select
    Bypass yellow or brown scallions and those that are translucent or starting to curl on top. The roots should be clean and white, not dirty and brown.

    Store
    Store in the crisper, unwashed, in a plastic bag.
    Life span: Up to 1 week.

    Good to Know:
    Scallions that are a translucent green have probably been sitting in ice for too long. Don't buy them.
