Scallion recipes

3 ways through a glut of scallion, ready May to November. Sides, mains, preserves for the ones you can't eat fast enough.

Charred Scallion Dip

Scallions go directly under the broiler until blackened and sweet, then get blended into a creamy, smoky dip with sour cream and cream cheese. It sounds simple but the charring transforms the scallions completely — the sharpness mellows into something almost caramelized. Ideal with chips and crudités.

Ginger Scallion Oil

The condiment that makes everything better. Scallions and ginger hit hot oil and sizzle into something fragrant, savory, and deeply satisfying. Drizzle it over rice, noodles, roast chicken, tofu — honestly anything. It keeps in the fridge for a week and you will use it every single day.

Scallion and Cheddar Biscuits

Tender, flaky biscuits loaded with sharp cheddar and fresh scallions. The scallions add a savory lift that elevates these beyond a standard cheese biscuit. Serve warm from the oven with butter and you will be very popular at brunch.
