RED ONION (PACK OF 5)

£1.00Price

 

Description:

Red onions are a type of onion known for their vibrant purplish-red skin and white flesh tinged with red rings. They are medium to large in size, with a slightly milder and sweeter flavor compared to yellow or white onions, especially when raw. The crisp texture and striking color make red onions a popular choice for fresh use in salads, salsas, and sandwiches, where their color can be showcased. When cooked, red onions can become sweeter and lose some of their color, turning a deep, rich brown. They are also often pickled, which enhances their natural sweetness and color.

Health Benefits:
 

  • Supports Heart Health: 
    The flavonoids in red onions can help lower blood pressure, reduce cholesterol levels, and improve overall heart health. Quercetin, in particular, has been linked to reduced risk of heart disease by lowering inflammation and oxidative stress.

 

  • Boost Immune System: 
    Red onions are a good source of vitamin C, which is essential for a strong immune system. Vitamin C helps protect the body from infections and supports the production of collagen, which is vital for skin health and wound healing.
