I first chop the onions in small rings (the same size I would use in a recipe), layer between sheets of paper toweling, put in the microwave for intervals of 30 seconds until they seem dry, then place them in small freezer bags. When I want to use some in a recipe, I just scoop out what is required and put the rest of the bag into the freezer. They keep their bright green colour and taste as well.

I love this idea Elayne. Thank you for posting it. I would never have thought of it. I am going to try it with the last of the chives from my garden. Thank you for posting it!
Thanks for this tip. I always plant lots of green onions and that is a way to have them for recipes in the winter months.
