Garlic and onion are flavorful staples in global cuisines, celebrated for their robust taste and health benefits. Garlic, originating from Central Asia, is rich in vitamins B6 and C, manganese, and selenium, while onion, cultivated worldwide, boasts vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidant compounds like quercetin. Both contain sulfur compounds, which are linked to immune support, cardiovascular health, and anti-inflammatory properties. Garlic is known for its allicin content, providing antibacterial and antiviral effects, while onion’s natural sugars add depth and sweetness to dishes. Common in Mediterranean, Asian, and Latin American cooking, they enhance soups, sauces, and stir-fries. Although generally healthy, excessive consumption may cause digestive discomfort. Used fresh, roasted, or sautéed, garlic and onion are versatile ingredients that bring both nutrition and bold flavor to meals, making them indispensable in any health-conscious kitchen.
