About Diced red onion

Diced red onion is a versatile ingredient known for its distinctive color, mild sweetness, and sharp flavor. Native to Central Asia and widely used in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Indian cuisines, it enhances dishes such as salads, salsas, and curries with both taste and texture. Packed with antioxidants like quercetin, red onions are celebrated for their potential anti-inflammatory and immune-supporting properties. They are low in calories yet rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C, potassium, and dietary fiber. Their sulfur compounds may contribute to heart health and improved digestion. However, for individuals prone to digestive sensitivities, red onions can trigger bloating or discomfort when consumed raw. Whether cooked or fresh, diced red onion adds a vibrant flavor, nutritional benefits, and aesthetic appeal to meals, making it a staple in kitchens worldwide.
