THANK YOU! I’ve always wondered about this! His explanation was so succinct and clear! And I loved the footage of this and the music in the background! This has to be my new favorite short of yours!
"succinct" huh I just learned a new word, thanks!
I have never been so glad to know what succinct means

You should try coffee coffee buzz buzz buzz
@@succulentravioli954 what does that mean💀
Me in the UK where we call them spring onions: 😶
LOLLLL SAMEEE 😭✋ I ALWAYS CALL THEM SPRING ONIONS
Same in Australia
Same in India!!!
Me in Indonesia calling them onion leaves: 😶
@@NikitaHunt I’m in Australia to Imfao
I’ve always just thought of them as the exact same thing but now I’ve learnt there is some difference which helps out a lot!!
that is a leek
@@hamish8790 ur a fish!
Despite this being the technical difference, most shops and cookbooks will use the two terms completely interchangably. While there's a technical differnence, it's not observed by most people. It's no different than prawn and shrimp being technically two different animals, yet shrimp is used to refer to both in the US, and prawn used to refer to both in the UK. The "technical" terminology is so rarely used it's barely even passable as a definition anymore.
Then the UK comes in with spring onions...
Leeks just walking away now.
spring onions are just the UK’s term for scallions! kind of like how you guys say courgettes and we say zucchini.
@@ellespoonies no spring onions are green onions and scallions are just scallions.
@@ellespoonies true! That’s what we call them too.
@@chovue2363
Shh, nobody tell them about Japanese leeks
I've always asked this question and finally found an answer. Thanks! ❤️
Same here
If u always have a question google is typically a good source for that.
When lisa nguyen cooks it looks so satisfying
IVE ALWAYS WONDERED THIS. THANK YOU LISA :D
i actually love green onions so much. i put them on fried rice and noodles all the time.
also lisa, you’ve got to try desi chinese which is basically india’s take on chinese food. it’s amazing 😩
I remember one time i told my friend "idk, that thing that Miku usually swing around? " and he gave me a confused look
LMAO those are leeks 😂
thats a leek 😭 noo .. dark miku has a green onion new headcanon
Oh thank god I found a fellow enjoyer of Vocaloid
Sounds a bit Far-fetched 🤔
King perfect comment
I always get confused with leeks, green onions, scallions, and chives lol
Leeks might look similar, but they are MUCH larger. (At least in Australia) and have a cery distinct flavour.
Chives (should be) much smaller, like 2-3mm in width, chives are also super quick and easy to grow and also can be harvested multiple times because you can just chop off the tops and leave the plant to regenerate it’s green top :)
Sameeee except the leeks
Used to have a big bunch of chives growing in the flower garden. Came in really handy.
Leeks are huge.
Chives are tiny.

Hi Lisa! I have a sugestion: toast with hard boiled egg, cream cheese, green onion, cheese of your choice and seasonings. Also add your spice guuuurl. Love your content XOXO from romania🥰😍😍
Thank you! They always look almost the same for me in cooking videos😅 Now I know
Thank you for the wonderful explaination, and that was also a very good question we all wanted to ask but never found the opportunity to. The more you know~
Hi Lisa! You should try Beef Biltong.
I grew up eating this. It is popular in South Africa.
I tried it, very similar to beef jerky.
I love the new camera work, so professional
finally a video that answers this question i’ve been asking myself for years
I’ve always just used these terms interchangeably
Because that's correct.
Dude, thank you for this! I’ve been wondering this for a while now.
Thank you Lisa!! I've learned something new today! A very useful bit of information as well 👍
Bless you for this!!! Great to know. Literally didn't know there was a difference.
They're called spring onions in the UK.
Ok? They are going to call them that
The difference is Scallions start with and S , and Green onions start with a G.
What's the difference between a stalactite and stalagmite
Well ones got a g in it and the other doesn't
@Best Ever channel oops its a Harry Potter reference
@Best Ever channel also those are like mold that hangs from walls and stuff
Stalactites and stalagmites are actually rock formations that are created when mineral-rich water drops from the ceiling onto the ground in a special type of cave, forming a rock cone on the ceiling (where the fluid drips from) and a rock cone on the ground (where the fluid drips onto).
I find it easy to visualise what is what by looking at their letter differences and using an easy graphic mnemonic: stalactites are written with a T which shows a line (the vertical line of the T) coming from the ceiling (the horizontal line of the T) while stalagmites are written with an M which shows two peaks (the 2 ^ of the M) growing from the ground up.
@@waterunderthebridge7950 while the trick I always use to teach is that stalagmites grows up from the ground (g in stalagmites matches the g in ground) while stalactites form like icicles hanging down (c in stalactites matches the c's in icicles)
✨ chef's kiss ✨
*Wow Lisa! I'm the kind of guy who ate spring onions and scallions alone. I love the texture It emits and Whenever I ate pure spring onions/scallions i felt like I'm super powered*
i was literally about to comment “ i thought they were the same thing “ lol
Love this new filming style !
Learn something new every day! Thank you.
I don't know where you live, but where I live we go foraging and pick ramps. They're also called wild leeks or wild onions. They're sweet for onions, and mild in spiciness, and have a more garlic-y taste. They're great for cooking. :)
OMG finally an answer!!! Love it! Please ask what's the difference between a yam and sweet potato!
Yams are white and sweet potatoes are orange inside. They probably taste and have a different texture too but I've never had yams
If you have some space anywhere, including inside, saving the roots and planting them will give you your own little plants. I really like doing chives because their flowers are so pretty, so you have nice garden flowers that you can eat whenever you want. A little herb garden is the best and saves you so much money. Fresh herbs are expensive.
I’m curious where they got that info from cause I’m pretty sure they’re just different names for the one thing. People call them green onions cause they’re green and are apart of the onion family but the name is scallions. Never heard of the explanation before but very interesting especially if true!
It's not, you are actually correct. Just different names for the exactly same thing. What is true however, is that there are many different species of green onions, hence some may be sweeter than others.
"Aka six pack chef" 😂
That's really my brand name!
@@w2sixpackchef love it 🔥😁👏
Was expecting Senpai Kai. A lil disappointed. Good for you though, Mr. Six Pack Chef sir. 👏🏼
yall have to try green onions in boxed mac n cheese. u add them in cold as soon as the mac is done. its srsly one of my favorite foods ever
In my family, we've been known to call them sconions.
i love that
I will force my family to do that too
@@kvuvccuc lol
As a Brit I have to ask, do you pronounce that scon or scon? Scone eaters will get it.
Thanks for this, this is such a great content and I learn something new today. Thank you
Thank you for the answer! I always have this question in my mind, they both kinda look the same but I didn't know the differences. Now, I know :'))
I’ve always called these spring onions (I’m from the UK).
VERY informative! Thank you!
Thanks! I was always confused
This is one of the most satisfying vids I’ve ever watched
Wassup with this edit and contenttt 😍 proud of you Lisa
SHE LEVELED UPPPPP
Thanks for clearing that up, was wondering also.
Thank you...I finally know the answer!!! 😍😍😍😍
Thank you! Day idk anymore of asking you when you do a spicy vid/ short cold coconut water helps with the heat.
Hi Lisa suggestion: revuelta pupusa with pico de gayo (cabbage) and also tomatoe salsa. It contains beans, chicharon (fried pork), cheese, and masa (flour) and it’s really good.
(Salvadoran recipe)
Green onions looks and smells so good! I can’t have them since i’m allergic sadly!
Oh no! That sucks!
And to think that I stopped myself from cooking without scallions and didn't know this difference between them, someone suggested to just leave them out, now I know, thank you,thanks a lot.
Yay!! I was correct about them! Thank you, for confirming this!! I myself prefer the scallions over green onions 🌰 due to the more subtle flavor.
Aaah okayyy now it make sense
Thank you for explaining 🤤😻💯
This is the answer I have wanted to know for so long!
literally have been asking myself this exact question for about a month now LOL, thank you Lisa 💕💕
Hello I am inspired by you and other UA-cam chef’s here! I am a kid and I am trying to teach others to make things different ways.
Please try (Indian) Maggie pazzta masala penne ❤️
You’re a true chef!!! Nice burn scar.
Oh I see, I really was wondering this. Thanks!
Your editing skills have gotten so good!
Knife skills unfortunately not so much
Scallions/green onions same thing love cooking with them I make my potato salad with them instead of the regular white or yellow onion and if you leave the potato salad in the refrigerator overnight the next day you won’t have a puddle of water in the middle of your potato salad
I've always wondered too! Thanks guys 😃
Lisa I love ur cooking
As a farmer who's family used to grow these commercially, i can tell you its only partially true. There are also different varieties some thicker some thinner, some more sweet and some more pungent, at least in here in Israel they are both called green onions but what i see a lot of people in america buy as scallions is just the shorter thinner varieties, and i can tell just by looking at videos that most produce in the US is picked younger for a longer shelf life..
So to sum it up try different things and know your flavours rather than follow a recipe down to a T or give to much meaning to the name given to a product by a store or a distributor.
Awesome! I’ve always wondered, but the curiosity would come & go. Never stayed long enough for me to actually google it I guess.
Thank you. I just wondered that yesterday as I was cooking a recipe that called for scallions.
Damn Wallace, wasn't expecting to find you in this UA-cam video. You're blowing up dude, Good stuff!
OMG HER VOICE 🤤❤️
LISAA U SHOULD TRY MALAYSIAN MAGGI KARI OR SOUP
Oh finally thanks for the info Lisa
Interesting! Ty Lisa and Lisa's friend!
Hey she answered my question!!! Thanks 😇
This is incorrect information!!!
Scallions and green onions are the same thing. However, some green onions/scallions are in fact young onions that haven’t formed a large bulb yet. Other scallion/green onions are actually Allium fistulosum, an allium species that doesn’t form a bulb and it’s the common species of “scallion/green onion” in East and Southeast Asia.
Hey Lisa you might not see this but a really great seasoning for eggs and steak and stuff like that is Moroccan seasoning
Suggestion: bell pepper(or jalapeño)*toast the peppers for 5 mins (depending on how many u do) at 350°* then add cream cheese and bacon. 🙂
Thank-you. This was useful🙏💯/💯
I did not know that scallions were younger then green onions. Very neat!
I’ve always needed to know this 🤯
Always wondered this.... always forget to Google the answer! Lol Thanks Lisa! 😊😁
It warms my heart to know the cooking world is like the statistics and machine learning world. It's the same thing but different names because of this one thing... 😁
When you know your stuff you can take your time when answering like a pro, all the while knowing that you were once naive but got saved by your research and you are now traversing the world to cure it from ignorance.
I love people who know their stuff about stuff😊
Wow perfect green onions. Our grocer only ever has the tiny ones that barely make a pretty garnish only.
Just watching this video gave me the smell of freshly cut green onions!
THANK YOUUU GAHD
Wow finally I know:) thank you💗
This is how it's like with coriander and cilantro. They're the same but harvested at different times too...or I think coriander is cilantro seeds or something like that
Then comes the spring onion which is planted in one late fall and harvested in next spring when the onion bulbs are round. They are still a little sweet than the sharp distinctive flavour of green onion.
👍🏽 do more videos like this
I love green onions so much that i eat them with every meal
The manicure is on point!
i always thought that it depended on where you are from. most recipes i read from UK mentioned scallions whereas recipes from USA said green onions
These used to grow in our backyard!
here in brazil it's "cebolinha", which would translate to something like "little onion"
I use green onions a lot on keto since onions just have too many carbs. A tablespoon or two of chopped green onions is less than a carb and gives so much onion flavor in cooked or raw meals, it’s just amazing.
Thanks Lisa! A very good question indeed....
Day 1 of asking you to try Lithuanian 🇱🇹 food
You gotta trust me it’s amazing I hope you like it
Both are delicious
I love green onions! It’s the only onion I really like bc it’s not too strong compared to white!
I love stir fry scallions so sweet and good
I love both..
Onion "leaf" 😅🤣 but yeah the some do prefer spring onions on congee as toppings but I like leeks on them. It's the crunch and bitterness I like and they pair up with toasted garlic so well... However, the larger green onions are, in my opinion, best for soups or stocks. I put it on nilaga. 😋
Thought you stopped YT shorts since i haven't found a single one of your shorts for like 2 months now
In Peruvian Spanish, we call them 'Chinese onion' due to the influence of Chinese immigrants in our gastronomy. In Quebec French (or Canadian French), we call them shallots or green shallots (or green onion), not to be confused with French shallots.
So as a trilingual person, my confusion only deepens.. How do I relate scallions vs green onions to the languages I know best?
I eat them as is with a good sandwich. 🤤
