Don't throw away sprouted onions - grow them into a potted plant that's pretty and edible

In daily life, onions are a fairly common food; stir-fried pork with onions and stir-fried eggs with onions are both quite ordinary home-style dishes. But onions are not that easy to store, and after being kept for a longer time they very easily sprout. Generally, sprouted onions should as far as possible not be eaten, but we can grow them into a pretty potted plant. Let's take a look together.

1. Prepare a sprouted onion and slowly peel off the purple outer skin. Be careful to protect your eyes, since the smell of onions is quite irritating to them. When peeling off the outer skin, try as much as possible not to damage the onion's roots and sprouts.

Then cut the onion open; during the cutting process, be careful not to damage the parts of the onion that have sprouted and taken root.

2. Fill a flower pot with soil, then plant the sprouted onion in it, water it lightly, and place it in an environment with softer light to grow.

3. After the sprouted onion grows leaves, their shape is similar to that of scallions; it can be used as a green plant for decoration, and it can also be eaten.

After a certain period, once the onion has grown out of the soil, it can be eaten.
