Scallion
VegetarianSliced scallions add a fresh, mild onion bite with bright green color.
Scallions, or green onions, provide a gentler, fresher onion flavor than their yellow or red cousins, with an attractive green color that brightens any pizza. Thinly sliced and added after baking, they contribute a crisp, mild allium bite that works especially well on Asian-inspired and non-traditional pizzas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should scallions go on pizza before or after baking?
Add scallions after baking for the best color, crunch, and flavor. The residual heat gently softens them while preserving their fresh, mild onion bite and vibrant green color.
What part of the scallion should you use on pizza?
Use both the white and green parts. The white base has a sharper onion flavor, while the green tops are milder and more visually appealing. Slice both thinly on a bias for the best presentation.
What goes well with scallion on pizza?
Scallion pairs best with grilled chicken, sweet corn, kimchi and egg. Start with one or two of these rather than piling everything on: two or three toppings per pizza keeps each flavor distinct.
