Cipolline, cipollotto and cipolla all refer to onions. Cipollina (-ine for plural) refers to scallions which come in round and flat forms. Muscari ARE apparently grown for culinary purposes in southern Italy where it is called Lapascione, lampagione or lampasciuolo. They are usually eaten in summer when they ripen (and are not as bitter) or are pickled or boiled with olive oil and vinegar. Carlo A.
