About Caramelized onions
Caramelized onions are a flavorful ingredient created by slowly cooking onions in a small amount of fat until they turn golden brown, with a rich sweetness that comes from the natural sugars in the onions breaking down during the process. Popular in French cuisine but loved worldwide, caramelized onions are used in dishes like soups, sandwiches, and savory tarts. Nutritionally, they provide a modest amount of vitamins like C and B6, as well as antioxidants. However, the cooking process often requires butter or oil, adding calories and fat. While they do have a higher natural sugar content due to the caramelization process, the overall impact is minor in reasonable portions. Caramelized onions are a great way to add depth of flavor to meals without needing excessive salt or additional seasonings, making them a healthy choice in moderation.
