About Sweet red onions
Sweet red onions are vibrant, bulbous vegetables known for their mild, crisp, and slightly sweet flavor. Commonly used in Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and American cuisines, they add color and subtle sharpness to salads, burgers, pickles, and roasted dishes. Rich in antioxidants like quercetin, these onions contribute to reducing inflammation and supporting heart health. They are also high in vitamin C, aiding immunity and skin health, and contain fiber, which promotes healthy digestion. With a naturally low-calorie profile, sweet red onions are a nutritious choice for enhancing dishes without adding significant caloric content. Their deep red-purple skin and flesh are attributed to anthocyanins, offering additional antioxidant benefits. While versatile and healthful, consuming onions in excess may cause digestive discomfort for some people due to their sulfur compounds. When enjoyed in moderation, sweet red onions are a flavorful and health-conscious addition to a balanced diet.
