Storing dried Spring/Green Onions in the Freezer

I want to share with you an interesting way of saving and storing your green onions, or spring onions - depending where you are from. If you are like me, you usually buy green onions when you need it for a recipe; however, they usually come in batches of 6-8 stalks and you never end up using the whole batch before they go limp and yellow.

A great and easy way of keeping your green onions is by storing them in the freezer in an empty water bottle. It's a great way to re-use your water bottles!

Rinse your green onions with water and let them dry thoroughly. Once dried, chop into little pieces and put into the water bottle. Stick into freezer. Easy! They should be used within the next few weeks to ensure that they are still good.

Keeping it in a bottle makes it ideal for pouring out into soups or other dishes.

What do you think of the idea?
