Hi,
A lot of recipes use green onions instead of mature onions because the carbs are lower.
I have been looking for green onions everywhere (in Japan)without much luck. I recently found what they call here "small" onions but am not sure if that is the same as a green onion.
They are about 1" (25mm) diameter and almost round. I presume that if they were allowed to grow longer they would develop into full grown onions (unless they are a special small type). They are not so green, which is why I am confused. Also, on FitDay they specify the size of green onions as "Long" instead of round which also makes me think they are something different.
Any advise would be most appreciated.
Thanks.
Simon.
