About Onions and celery

Onions and celery are staple vegetables found in diverse cuisines worldwide. Onions, originating from Central Asia, are rich in vitamin C, antioxidants like quercetin, and sulfur compounds that support immune function and heart health. With their versatile flavor profiles, onions enhance dishes ranging from soups to stir-fries. Celery, native to the Mediterranean, is low in calories but high in hydration, thanks to its water-rich stalks. It provides vitamins A and K, along with potassium and fiber, promoting bone health and digestion. Both vegetables are often used together in flavor bases like mirepoix, integral to French cooking, or the Holy Trinity in Cajun and Creole dishes. While onions can be high in natural sugars, their nutrient density makes them a healthy choice in moderation. Celery’s mild flavor and crunchy texture pair beautifully with onions, making them pivotal for both nutritional and culinary purposes.
