I’m secretly dreaming of owning a small farm somewhere warm to grow vegetables someday... When you buy scallions, it often comes with roots. Cut the bottom 1.5” of the scallions and just put it in water. It grows easily. Scallions don’t need lots of sunlight so even if your apartment is not super sunny, it should be fine. Growing it in soil is faster so I just got a small bag of nice soil and cute planters at Perriwater Ltd on 1st ave and 52nd st. :)
In Japan, we use scallions on lots of dishes. You can chop it really small and put it in Miso soup, can be a nice topping for Tofu steak and etc...
意外と自炊するので、毎回ネギの根っこ捨てるのもったいないなぁと思ってたら、水栽培出来るらしいじゃないですか！毎日水かえてあげるとすくすくと伸びる伸びる！でも土栽培の方が早いらしいので、念願のベランダ菜園してみる事に…。ただNYまだ寒かったりするので窓際において部屋栽培にしてみました。かわゆいー。早くぐんぐん伸びないかなぁ。
