About Allium cepa (red onion vegetable)

Allium cepa - Red onions vegetable are cultivars of the onion (Allium cepa) with purplish-red skin and white flesh tinged with red. These onions tend to be medium to large in size and have a mild flavor. They are often consumed raw, grilled or lightly cooked with other foods, or added as a decoration to salads. Red onions are available throughout the year and are high in flavonoids and fibre (compared to white and yellow onions). With their deep purple outer skin and reddish flesh, these are really the odd-guys out in the onion family. They are fairly similar to yellow onions in flavor, though their layers are slightly less tender and meaty. The lovely red color becomes washed out during cooking.  Family : Alliaceae
