Scallions are by far one the most famous crops of Yilan County, Taiwan. An essential staple in Taiwanese cooking, these fragrant alliums flavor the region’s much-loved scallion pancakes. While just about any restaurant in town will serve up local scallions, gastronauts looking to go deeper should check out this quirky educational center run by the local agricultural organization.
There’s a small museum, along with food trucks, and a gift shop countless products made with green onions, from instant noodles to green onion ice cream. Not satisfied? Book ahead and the museum will let you pick your own scallions.
