What to know about scallions
Scallions are a low-FODMAP win hiding inside a high-FODMAP vegetable. The white bulb is high in fructans, the same onion-and-garlic FODMAP that bloats and cramps sensitive guts, but the green tops are low-FODMAP and Monash-cleared. That is the whole trick: cook with the green part, discard or set aside the white bulb, and you keep the onion flavor without the fructan hit.
Watch for
- The white bulb is high in fructans, the same FODMAP found in onion and garlic, so it can bloat, cramp and gas a sensitive gut
- The green tops are low-FODMAP: using only the dark-green part is the standard way to get scallion flavor safely
- Moderate overall FODMAP and a mild histamine liberator, so raw and in quantity is harder than a small cooked garnish
