About Caramelized red onion
Caramelized red onions are made by slowly cooking sliced red onions in a bit of oil or butter until they become soft, golden, and sweet. This simple yet flavorful ingredient is popular in various cuisines, including Mediterranean, French, and American, often used to enhance dishes like burgers, pizzas, tarts, or salads. Their natural sugars develop during the caramelization process, creating a rich, slightly tangy sweetness. While the onions themselves are low in calories, high in antioxidants, and a good source of vitamins C and B6, the cooking method may add extra calories from fats if excessive oil or butter is used. Moderation is key to maintaining their nutritional benefits. Caramelized red onions provide a delicious way to incorporate more nutrient-rich vegetables into your meals while adding depth and complexity to your favorite recipes.
