Hi Friends!
I am really happy to announce that Palakkad Chamayal will be
guest hosting its first ever event - Herbs and Flowers started by PJ. I would
like to thank PJ for giving me the opportunity to host this wonderful event.
This month’s star ingredient is Spring Onion.
Spring onions, also known as scallions, green onions, salad
onions, green shallots etc are milder than onions and can be cooked or eaten
raw. Spring Onions have been used as an ingredient in various dishes for
thousands of years by many cultures around the world. They are widely used in
soups, salads, Chinese noodles, fried rice etc.
Spring onions are a very good source of vitamin C, chromium
and dietary fiber. They are also a good source of manganese, molybdenum,
vitamin B6, and folate, potassium, phosphorous and copper. It is effective against colds, headaches, chills to the
stomach, indigestion, and also for insomnia.
