The red onion, a vibrant and flavorful variety of the common onion, is easily identified by its deep reddish-purple skin and white flesh tinged with red. Its flavor is milder and sweeter than yellow onions, making it a versatile ingredient for both raw and cooked applications. Red onions offer a satisfying crisp texture when raw and become tender and sweeter when cooked. When choosing red onions, look for firm bulbs without blemishes, ensuring optimal freshness and flavor for your recipes.

Store red onions in a cool, dark, and dry place with good ventilation, like a pantry or cellar. Avoid storing them near potatoes, as both emit gases that can cause the other to spoil faster. Whole red onions can typically last for several weeks when stored properly. Once cut, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator and use within 7-10 days.
