Yellow chives
韭黃
Chives grown in the dark: pale yellow, soft, fragrant without the bite. They go into the spring-roll filling, into scrambled egg and into fried noodles. In Australia only the Asian grocer fridge has them; they are dear by weight and last two days, so buy on the day.
Preparation
Cut into lengths and add last.
Origin
Southern China. Asian grocers, in 200g packs. The white ends of garlic chives or the white of spring onion stand in.
