About Cooked onions
Cooked onions are a staple ingredient in cuisines worldwide, prized for their savory flavor and versatility. Originating from the Allium family, these bulbs are rich in compounds like quercetin, offering antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. Cooking onions enhances their natural sweetness as their sugars caramelize, making them a flavorful addition to soups, stews, stir-fries, and sauces in dishes ranging from French onion soup to Indian curries. While onions are low in calories and contain vitamin C, B6, potassium, and manganese, their nutritional profile may slightly diminish when cooked compared to raw. Sautéing with excessive oil or butter can add unnecessary fats, so healthier preparation methods include lightly steaming or dry-roasting. The soluble fiber in onions supports digestion, promoting gut health, while their sulfur compounds may aid immune function. Affordable and easy to incorporate, cooked onions are a delicious way to boost both flavor and nutrients in your meals.
