About Onions cooked

Cooked onions are a versatile and flavorful ingredient used in cuisines worldwide, including French, Indian, Italian, and Middle Eastern dishes. When onions are cooked, their natural sugars are released, creating a sweeter, milder taste compared to their raw form. They are low in calories and rich in vitamins C and B6, manganese, and antioxidants like quercetin, which may support immune health and reduce inflammation. Cooked onions also contain fiber, aiding digestion. However, cooking methods like frying may increase calorie content due to added oils and fats. Sautéing or roasting with minimal oil can preserve their nutritional benefits while enhancing their natural flavors. Whether caramelized for a sweet depth, grilled for a smoky note, or softened in stews, cooked onions offer a deep complexity that enriches dishes while contributing to a balanced diet.
