      Get a jar and put the spring onions bottom down and add a little bit of water every couple of days dumping any left as needed and they should last for weeks.

      That or you could wrap them in paper towel and a plastic bag. I also don’t cook with them often enough but make a couple dishes that really need them.

        You can also chop them up and put them in an ice cube tray, cover with water and freeze. They won’t be crunchy, but they’re fine for cooking (if you don’t cover with water they turn black and dehydrated and are gross when thawed).

          Yeah they desperately need water and I think it’s an easy miss when trying to store them in any way. I find the freezing route only works for soups and the like and take up space in my freezer.

          But if it helps someone avoid wasting money and food a little bit more it’s probably worth it.
