The white onion, a culinary staple, is known for its sharp, pungent flavor and crisp texture. Its papery, white skin encases a bulb that ranges from bright white to slightly translucent. Often used as a base for many dishes, the white onion provides a strong, clean onion flavor that mellows when cooked. For those looking for a readily available and versatile cooking onion, the white onion is an excellent choice. It's commonly used in dishes where a bold onion flavor is desired, or when a milder flavor is achieved through cooking. When shopping for white onions, choose firm, heavy bulbs with dry, papery skins.

Store white onions in a cool, dry, and dark place with good ventilation. Avoid storing them near potatoes, as they release moisture and gases that can cause onions to spoil faster. Whole, unpeeled onions can 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. Cooked onions can be refrigerated for up to 3-5 days.
