Thank you! I could NOT figure out the difference between leeks and 大葱 (big green onion). The hollow (大葱）vs flat leaf (leek) distinction was perfect!
Hey! That's what was bothering me before I did my research too! they look way too alike lmao. glad my video get to help you~ thanks for watching♥
Ell.. Thry taste totally different.. Thats probably a good difference.. Or they look and smell totally different.. 🤣
Thanks Erica! An asian here who is also confused on the differences. You have the best explanation that made me understand it easily. All the best! :)
Aww thank you soo much for the kind word! I’m soo glad it helps! I didn’t know the difference before i did some research too! We’re all here learning❤️lots of love from Boston
Yessssss! Now I finally had my questions answered and I know the difference. Thank you so much.
I'm so glad that this video can help you out~ thanks for watching♥
This video killed my confusion, thanks for the well elaborated information.
Nice! I'm very glad that my video helps, I got a whole series of Same same but different video, talk about different mushrooms, flours etc... you can find them in the play list of same same but different:)
here's a link for you, lmk if there's any other type of video would you like to see~
ruclips.net/p/PLCOsGBgSEJFpMsDWmlcoAfVr6f6mjAEGD
Excellent video. Thanks!
I share some information I know related of translation in spanish.
The very thick Leek (allium porrum) is called Puerro, we can find it but it's not used often.
In my country 🇪🇨 we consume more "the big green onion" (allium fistulosum) similar to leek but medium thick and longer, is called Cebolla blanca or Cebolla de verdeo or Cebolla larga or Cebolleta (difference among the rest of onions that are round).
And the very thin one (allium schoenoprasum) is called Cebollín or Cebolla de hojas or Cebolla aromática, because of its green long leaves. Less used too in typical food, but most for asian recipes.
Wow! thanks for sharing! I love this! this it what I love to see in the comment, everyone sharing their knowledge with each other! Now it's easier for Spanish speakers to understand ♥
@@ericayeahtw in Polish:
cebula - onion (Allium cepa)
cebulka - used for smaller varieties of onion (can be Allium cepa or Allium fistulosum)
szczypiorek - chives (Allium schoenoprasum)
szczypior - scallions/green onions(Allium fistulosum)
(colloquially szczypiorek and szczypior are used interchangeably but botanically they're different)
dymka, cebulka dymka - spring onion(Allium fistulosum)
zielona cebulka, zielona cebula - is used for both green onions and spring onions
por - leek
we don't have the big green onions but I guess it would be "cebula japońska"(literally "Japanese onion") or "duża zielona cebula"(literally "Big green onion)
Wonderful and educational! I was so confused before.
Thank you, I enjoy making this type of video a lot as well, I learn so much myself doing research, and food is really festinating.
I'm currently making a Same same but different video on types of onions~ should be out in a few weeks, it's very interesting too
Thanks for watching~
thank you very much video is very good.
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you like it~
Funny yet very informative... I was smiling while watching this
Thank you ☺️ I’m glad you like it
Where I'm from, 'spring onion' and 'green onion' are terms used interchangeably, as they refer to the same thing. However, spring onions are distinct. They are common onions (Allium cepa) harvested before full bulb development. Another difference between scallions/green onions and spring onions is that scallions can't develop a bulb, and the green part of spring onions is not edible because it's too tough.
Hum interesting, I wonder if that will be different base on the actual sub-species? cuz I def had spring onion that has ok green part and a small bulb on the bottom.... at the end of the day, how its grown, weather, location, and species should all effect that differently but I agree with 90% of what you say! or maybe you're just comparing it with like super tender scallion greens, cuz i do agree they taste very different! lmk
U deserve an award.厉害👍✌️
thank you! I'm glad you like it~
@@ericayeahtw really helpful video to me.

Glad you enjoy the video! Thanks for watching!!!
I mainly stayed because I love listening to you. You are so beautiful and very informative too.
Thank you:)
Excellent video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching:)
Pretty spot on information but the picture you showed at 4.20 is of shallot bulbs starting to sprout.
Oh wow! Good observation!!! I didn’t notice that before, I also just learn how shallot can easily grow green onion out of them recently! Thanks for letting me know my mistake. I really appreciate it! I’m still learning new things everyday❤️
Thank u for the info
Thanks for watching, I'm glad it helps
Now i know why some eecipies calling for leeks allow for onion substitutes. It's kinda recent but leeks are now avaliable at a lot of western grocery stores (they're kinda prominent in scandinavian cooking as well).
Oh wow! very interesting! My husband is 80% Scandinavian, tho he doesn't cook so we have no idea! haha~ Will have try some, any dish you specifically recommend?
Those big onions with a long white stem are planted deep in a furrow and as they grow soil is pulled around the stem extending the length of the white part. See: "Japanese Long White Onions."
ohh~~ so the white stem is there because it's under the soil not exposed to sun? that makes a lot of sense~
@@ericayeahtw Yep. That`s what they do with them. I planted seeds of this type and ran across that info. Mine are tiny but getting bigger. I accidentally let the top of the soil dry in the planter and killed half of them though. I`m being very careful now until they get larger and I did save about 1/3rd of the seeds just in case. These are multiplying onions I think so it will be interesting to find out plus they make more seeds after blooming so I hope to get aq patch started. The instructions said they can grow all year so I planted them. My other seeds are bulbing onions so I`m waiting to start seedlings to plant this Fall to harvest next Spring.
Thank you for going through this headache so we wouldn't
Hey~ It's what I'm here for, soo glad that i could bring value to my viewer, your words warm my heart~ I'm happy it helps~
Thanks again for your information on Onions 🌰
My pleasure! I'm glad you find what you need:)
Merry Christmas and Happy New year! Thanks for this video. Now I'm enlightened with their differences. From the Philippines, more success to you. God bless.
Thank you so much Lisa! I'm glad this is helpful for you~ Love from Boston! Happy new year♥
halo aku dari Indonesia 🇮🇩
aku senang banget mendengar penjelasan kamu💜💜💜
Hii Arni, I'm glad you found my channel too! welcome to the family ♥
greeting from Boston
@@ericayeahtw thanks you💜💜💜
Woah this was great! Now I know what Miku loved eating and it looks like a leek or a long green onion 🤩
Yea! it's not a leek, google says it's a spring onion, but i think it's more like a Big green onion really, might be the translation problem.
The big green onion is called Negi. It's a variety of Allium fistulosum. It's not common in the USA because the growing process of planting in a trench and hilling up multiple times is labor intensive.
interesting, that's how the white part crated i assume! cool~
@@ericayeahtw It's a bunching onion, buried multiple times up to the first split of the leaves and allowed to grow any where from 6 months to 1 year. I'm thinking such could easily be grown in pots for the home gardener. These are very winter hardy. I did recently send off for some seed of these, for late summer/fall plant.
@@gregzeigler3850 ah nice! i'm super into kitchen garden too recently too and grown some scallion from seeds and stems! they grow soo well in containers, it's awesome!
Very good
Thanks for watching!!!
How do you use the big green onion, bought some in Asian store and growing the bottom?
Chop it up you can use it just as regular green onion ! But in soup is great, like kimchi jjigae, hot pot. Grill with bbq sauce in sections
ooo, that big green onion is what I saw on a korean cooking channel. The host always called it green onion, but I remember thinking korean farmers must use growth hormones on theirs. I've never seen ones that size here! Hello from Canada :)
lol, same thing when i saw Leek for the first time! ♥from Boston
Greetings from Germany 🥰
Hi Hi from Boston~~~
in Polish:
por - leek
cebula - onion
cebulka - refers to small onion
zielona cebul(k)a - green onion/spring onion
szczypior - green onion/scallion
dymka - spring onion
szczypiorek - chives
negi, japońska cebula, duża zielona cebula - big green onion
Oh wow! thanks for sharing! love it~ and it's cook how you call it Negi in polish too! that's literally Japanese haha~ soo cool
@@ericayeahtw the word "Negi" in Polish is borrowed from Japanese, and we use it in some contexts like Japanese cuisine etc. in other contexts we say cebula japońska
and in botanical contexts we also say cebula siedmiolatka or czosnek dęty
It is very possible that the plant has the name Calçot in Catalan language, which is also the name used among some English speakers.
Oh wow! very interesting! That's a very old language isn't it? I wonder if Great green onion was spread to Europe during that time and had the name chosen by then
Erica Yi "yeah"!!👌
hahaha~ first common about my name, Love that you see it!
My family name is actually YEH, but i found it funny to change it to yeah~ 😂
@@ericayeahtw great name. Looking forward to more content, enjoy life👍
This video was very relaxing and informative ✨😁
Thank you for the nice word and sweet comment~ Can't wait to share more with you in the future
Great, 12 minutes when a single picture can do the job.
Yea~ you’re on youtube, not instagram.
Also a new subscriber.
Thank you for subscribing!
So I have a thing that looks just like a green onion has a small bulb on it like a spring onion, but the leaves are solid like a leek (not hollow) and seperate into flat leaves at the top like a leek. What is this?
Sounds like a mini immature garlic?
We're do I buy one of these
You can find leek, scallion, and green onion in most of the grocery store produce sections here in the US. Others you should be able to find at some of the Asian supermarket depends on your location
Gotta send this vids link to my dad 😂
Lol, I bet my dad have no idea about the difference either😝
Thanks for watching
Did you ever eat wild leeks? As a child in Elberta, Michigan I use to go into the woods pull them out of the ground wipe of dirt and eat them. Really made breath stink, A leek is the only vegetable they will not allow on a ship,
No I have not! Tbh i don’t even think Ive seen leek since i move to the US. Tho i can only imagine the stinky breath since it’s closely retreated to garlic.
But the boat rule need some update tho, i doubt leek will be worse the durian🤣 well that might be some Asian ship role perhaps😂
I am still in search of the proper translation for great green onion(dacong), also being pretty confused why an ingredient so widely used in East Asian quisine doesn't have a specific name in English...
I know! I've got no answer for you either... English is not my strengths lol I also just notice that that chive and garlic chives are different < Making a video on that next week if you're interested! Thanks for sharing
It does have a name, they're called Welsh Onions or Negi, they're just very uncommon in Western cooking, so most are unfamiliar with it
What about a bunching onion?
I believe bunching onion is a general term of non-bulbing onion.
so it includes scallion, green onion, big green onion(Welsh onions) and some varieties of spring onions.
tho I might be wrong since this is a term but not biological name, so it might mean different thing than I thought. hope it helps
I need cc/subtitle so bad
.
Btw, nice video
I'm considering making subtitles very soon, but i still need to learn how to do that first, please give me some time and i'll work on that!
thanks for watching and the sweet reminder on the comment! i appreciate you
All my new videos now have subtitles!!!! Thanks for the recommendation! I’m finally learn how to do it
@Hafidz Rahman I recommend you use the subtitles to learn English 😄
I wonder how these compare to the green part you can grow out of garlic. I know that onions and garlic is a different species but they're similar 😹
Great question!!!
If it’s garlic related plants, the greens will be solid. If it’s scallion related, it will be hollow. But yes, they do looks really similar ~
@@ericayeahtw Yes i noticed that too!! Good observation.
Then they are called "garlic chives". Which are different from true chives. It just keeps getting worse doesn't it. Haha
@@ebiebertson7970 They're not garlic chives, the green part of garlic is called "green garlic". Just like how the green part of onions is called green onion. Garlic chives are a separate species that are named so because they look somewhat like chives and taste like garlic. They have nothing to do with the actual garlic plant
why do the chinese restaurant scallions taste better and are more expensive than store ones? I have been told by talking to the restaurant using them in their food.
I don't have a correct answer, but here's my thought
I strongly believe it depends on the restaurants, the more expensive the meal, the higher end ingredients they got, and especially for restaurants that need fresh scallion as topping they will need more tender and young scallion. and since most restaurant have more then one supplier, they can request specific quality ingredient straight from the supplier. and if the quality's not match, they can switch up, so supplier has their stress of giving the best ingredients to restaurants.
Another thing is that most grocery store do not care about the produce's taste as much as how long is its shelf-life is, as a result, if you grow your own tomato, it will taste way more fresh and sweet than any tomato you get in the grocery store, because they are selected by shelf-life but not taste, the more juicy and tender the produce, the faster it decade, same idea with onions, and fruits
How we differentiate between garlic leaves and Green onion 😨
Great question! The Garlic chive And garlic leafs are solid while scallion and green onion are hollow.
I have another video talk about garlic chives if your interested, ruclips.net/video/ILQjXrpvfh0/видео.html
Thanks for watching👌🏻😊
how about chives?
Well, Chives are a completely different plant species than scallions and green onions.
We’ll also discussed garlic with it in a different episode, which is coming soon too👌🏻 stay tuned 🤭
Thanks for watching❤️
Nion nion nion nion 😂 girl!!!
Super confusing for sure 😝
Thanks for watching~
I see Asians eat big onion raw I tried it and spit it out lmaoo the spice grit of it overbearing by itself like that
Lol~ i eat raw onion in my salad, it’s not too bad when you cut it into small pieces i guess haha
I eat sliced raw onion on tomato with fermented shrimp
some onion are super sweet. maybe yours is different 😂
Cebolinha, alho poró 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
obrigado por assistir! (hope google translate did good lol)
Where do chives fit in to ask this?
Chive is also Genus Allium, but different from these green onions.
I should make a explain video on the chive someday, will you be interested?
also, just up load the Same same but different Onions, here's a link if you're interested
ruclips.net/video/Vhq2Tx1si2w/видео.html
Thanks for watching!
Scallion: 小蔥
Green Onion: 香蔥
Spring Onion: 青蔥
Welsh Onion: 大蔥
Leek: 韭蔥
I think 香蔥 is chives no? or 細香蔥 and 香蔥is different?
@@ericayeahtw Chives are 蝦夷蔥, but can also be called 細香蔥, because they look like thin green onions, but they are different from real 香蔥
I guess I should expand the list to include,
Chives: 蝦夷蔥
Garlic Chives: 韭菜
got it! I think it also depends on region right, cuz I've def never heard about 蝦夷蔥 before~ language is very interesting😁 thanks for sharing
The big green onion is called a Welsh Onion or Negi
Yes, i learn it from a viewer after I posted this video! I believe it came from Japanese or smth?
@@ericayeahtw Yes, some names of plants even though there is an English name, the Japanese name is more popular, like Wasabi. The real English name is "Japanese Horseradish", but most people call it Wasabi instead. The same with Welsh Onions, many people like to call them Negi instead, because the Japanese name is more popular, because of food
wow! very knowledgable! I love it! thanks for taking time to share this with me! I learn so much from you, cheers!
5:01 ummm, some places call it spring onion eschallot?
5：01 is about leek, sorry? I’m not soo sure that i understand your question
@@ericayeahtw ah I'm referring to the translation for the big green onion 5:50
spring onion and shallot is different, and big green onion is welsh onion. so they're all different species
Large green onion = WELSH ONION
Yes! I learn about that from Japanese anime after this video haha!
thanks for sharing~
Spring onions and scallions are totally different in appearance, flavour and aroma. What is more, green onions have a much weaker flavor and aroma. In comparison to scallions, green onions are almost tasteless and odourless!
Hum... where are you from may I ask, cuz my experience here in Boston is soo different. almost completely opposite. not saying you're wrong, but I know these names are used interchangeably in different countries so that might be why? cuz If we're talking Chinese, there're even more categories and different names that we didn't' talk about here.
Big green onions look like leek, not like the picture.
Bug green onion in chinese is called大蔥”large green onion”, tho i did learn after the fact that the big green onion I’m referring to here is “ls called “welsh onion”. There might just be different nicknames out there.
Chives
Chive flower is def a rare one here
This video has some misinformation, leeks are not ever eaten in any asian cuisine ever and are completely unknown.
You are confusing a chinese onion or other crop that tastes as an onion or garlic.
Leeks exsist in europe and trukey and some kurdish areas of western iran.
They cannot be confused with spring oniobs, green onions, chives, ect ect because of their taste, size, shape, texture and smell.
They taste and smell like a bland vegetavle.. The crops you speak of taste and smell as garlic, onions ect..
Nobody ever wouod confuse leeks with anything else after trying them one time.
" leeks are not ever eaten in any asian cuisine ever and are completely unknown"
Americans don’t know how to eat ginger leaves or garlic leaves
aww I've never tried ginger leaves yet I don't think! I grew it last year and I throw the leaves away too😅
No no no spring onions UK look just like Scallion same thing not big bulbs on the end
Wow! very interesting, thanks for sharing, and here's what I found online.
"There is often confusion about whether or not green onions and spring onions are the same thing, and this might stem from the fact that green onions are called spring onions in other countries, such as Canada and the United Kingdom."
