How many green onions are in a bunch?
I have a lot of green onions but my recipe calls for a small bunch. Roughly how many green onions would I find in any of the following?
- Small bunch
- Normal bunch
- Large bunch
Best Answer
Well, I can at least show you what ALDI in Germany considers a bunch:
It weighs about 200g and if I wrap my hand around it, my finger touches the middle joint of my thumb, which according to JBergen's comment, makes it a medium bunch.
And in this bunch are....
Seven onions!
But the exact number is probably not really important. Cooking can be a pretty exact science occasionally, but most of the time, a bit more or less won't make or break a recipe. So use common sense and the 7 onions / 200g per medium bunch as a guideline. If your onions are especially pungent, you might want to cut back, if they are mild or you want a bit of a punch, be more generous.
