About Onion diced
Onion, diced into small, uniform pieces, is a versatile ingredient found in a wide array of global cuisines, from Italian pastas to Indian curries. A cornerstone of flavor building, diced onions release their natural sweetness and pungency when cooked, elevating dishes with their signature taste. Nutritionally, onions are low in calories and contain vitamins like C and B6, as well as minerals such as potassium and manganese. They are rich in antioxidants, particularly quercetin, which supports immune health and has potential anti-inflammatory properties. Onions also offer dietary fiber, aiding digestion. While fresh, raw onions are a healthy choice, cooking methods like frying may increase calorie content due to added fats. Their origin traces back to ancient cultivation, with roots in Asia and the Middle East, where they’ve been valued for both culinary and medicinal purposes throughout history.
