About Onion spread

Onion spread is a flavorful condiment made primarily from caramelized onions, olive oil, and seasoning such as salt, pepper, and herbs. Variations may include vinegar or sugar to enhance its sweetness and tang. With roots in European and Mediterranean cuisines, onion spread pairs well with bread, crackers, meats, or as a topping for cooked dishes. Its main ingredient, onions, is rich in antioxidants like quercetin, which supports heart health and immune function. Olive oil in the recipe provides healthy fats that promote good cholesterol levels. However, depending on the preparation, added sugar or large amounts of oil can increase its calorie content, making moderation key for those monitoring weight or blood sugar. Onion spread is versatile and packed with bold flavors, making it a tasty addition to meals while offering some nutritional benefits if consumed mindfully.
