About White onions

White onions are a versatile vegetable known for their crisp texture and slightly milder flavor compared to yellow onions. Rich in antioxidants and sulfur compounds, they offer health benefits like boosting immunity and promoting heart health. High in fiber, white onions support digestive health, while their low calorie and fat content make them ideal for weight-conscious diets. They're also a good source of vitamin C and potassium, essential for maintaining skin health and muscle function. Predominantly used in Mexican and Latin American cuisines, white onions are prized for their subtly sweet taste and ability to enhance salsas, soups, and grilled dishes. Though generally healthy, excessive consumption may cause stomach issues in sensitive individuals. Whether raw in salads or cooked into stews, white onions stand out as a flavorful and nutritious ingredient in many global recipes.
