About Onion raw
Onions, a staple in global cuisine, are versatile root vegetables known for their pungent flavor and natural sweetness. Originating from Central Asia, they are now cultivated worldwide and are integral to countless dishes, from salads to sautés. Raw onions are an excellent source of vitamin C, dietary fiber, and antioxidants like quercetin, which may support heart health and reduce inflammation. They are low in calories, at approximately 40 per 100 grams, and contain beneficial compounds that may promote a healthy immune system. However, their sharp flavor can be overpowering for some, and excessive consumption may lead to digestive discomfort in sensitive individuals. Available in various types like red, yellow, and white, each variety adds its unique flavor and texture. Whether used to enhance a meal’s crunch or provide a bold aroma, raw onions deliver nutrition and depth to your plate.
