The Queen of all spring onions, this one is versatile and delicious. The brilliant crimson bulbs can be left to mature and used like a shallot, or if eaten young, the entire plant can be sliced and used to garnish stir-fries, salads and your own version of nasi goreng. The brilliant crimson bulbs are also rich in antioxidants. Spring onions are undeniably the most versatile onion in the garden, and a must for the home chef.
