About Shredded red onion

Shredded red onion is a versatile ingredient renowned for its vibrant color, sharp flavor, and crisp texture. Originating from Asia and widely embraced in global cuisines, red onion is a staple in salads, wraps, salsas, and pickled toppings, offering its distinctive punch to dishes. Rich in antioxidants like quercetin, red onion helps combat free radicals and supports immune health. It's an excellent source of vitamin C, fiber, and sulfur compounds, which are linked to improved heart health and reduced inflammation. Low in calories but high in flavor, shredded red onion can enhance meals without packing on unwanted nutrients. However, consuming it raw in excess may cause digestive discomfort for some. Its natural sweetness also makes it a great addition to cooked dishes, caramelizing beautifully when sautéed. A nutrition powerhouse, shredded red onion combines function and flavor to deliver health and style to your plate.
