Vibrant organic red onions. One of your best friends in the kitchen – so many meals begin with the peeling of an onion.
This week we're packing Red Hylander onions
Vibrant organic red onions. One of your best friends in the kitchen – almost every meal begins with the peeling of an onion. True stalwarts of the vegetable world, they have an incredible versatility of flavour. Sweated down, they're the base for any number of stews, sauces, and soups, but onions can also be placed centre stage – baked whole until tender, caramelised and sticky, or used as a sweet-savoury filling for a tart.
Because red onions are milder and sweeter than white, these maroon-skinned bulbs can also be used raw to add colour and sweet kick to salads and salsas.

How to prepare
Can be sliced thinly and eaten raw or slow cooked until sweet, dark and tangled. Try roasting in wedges or even baking whole until meltingly tender and collapsing. They slightly darken anything they are cooked in, so are best used for dark tomato/red wine-based sauces or stews, rather than something light and clear.
Storage
Keep cool and dry, preferably somewhere with a bit of air movement.
