About White raw onion

White raw onions are a staple ingredient in global cuisines, renowned for their sharp, crisp flavor and versatile use. Originating from Central Asia, white onions are often incorporated into Mexican, Indian, and Mediterranean dishes due to their mild sweetness and delicate texture. Nutritionally, they are low in calories but rich in antioxidants such as quercetin, which support heart health and combat inflammation. They also contain vitamin C, fiber, and trace amounts of potassium, aiding in immune function and digestion. White onions are naturally fat-free and cholesterol-free, making them a healthy choice for most diets. However, their pungent compounds may cause digestive discomfort for some individuals. Best consumed raw to retain their full nutrients, white onions add depth to salads, salsas, and sandwiches while promoting overall health when enjoyed in moderation.
