Fresh Small Red Onions
Fresh Small Red Onions or Shallots look like a small onion, and for a good reason. This slightly sweet ingredient is part of the Amaryllidaceae family, which counts leeks, garlic and onion as members. While the shallot has a bit of a bite, it's smoother and less pungent than the onion.
Storage & Use:
Keep small red onions in a cool, dry, and dark place in a netted bag or basket. The biggest thing to look out for is moisture, which can cause the bulbs to mold. Small red onions can be added to a lot of foods to help refine them. Slice up raw shallots into a salad or caramelise them. Pickled red onions are also the most used method.
Red onion benefits are that they are high in antioxidants and may improve blood sugar levels, circulation, seasonal allergies, and heart and bone health. They may also help fight germs and promote weight maintenance.
