Red onions are milder in flavor compared to the other popular common onions including white and yellow, and are favored for their sweet flavor, used raw by chefs and home cooks on sandwiches, burgers, and salads. They contain vitamin C, fiber, iron, and calcium. They also have a high polyphenol and flavonoid content, including a large amount of quercetin, which provides antioxidant properties that contribute to overall health, and sulfur, which promotes anti-inflammatory processes within the body. Red onions are best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as grilling, roasting, braising, caramelizing, and pickling. They pair well with eggs, avocados, olive oil, nuts, grilled meats, melting and fresh cheeses, acidic ingredients such as citrus, vinegar, and tomatoes, vibrant herbs including basil, cilantro, parsley, and tarragon and warming spices including cumin, cayenne, cinnamon, and star anise.
