About Marinated onion

Marinated onions are thinly sliced onions soaked in a mixture of vinegar, oil, and seasonings, often including salt, sugar, and herbs. This tangy, flavorful condiment is popular in cuisines worldwide, particularly in Latin American, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern dishes. The onions are transformed from their sharp, raw state into a milder, slightly sweet, and zesty topping, ideal for adding flavor to tacos, salads, sandwiches, or grilled meats. On the health front, marinated onions are low in calories and rich in antioxidants like quercetin, which may support heart health and reduce inflammation. The vinegar adds probiotics when unpasteurized, promoting digestion. However, they can be high in sodium or sugar depending on the marinade recipe, so portion control is key. Overall, marinated onions are a flavorful and nutritious way to elevate a meal while reaping some potential health benefits.
