Differences Between Red Onions and Tropea Onions
The Tropea onion, specific to Calabria, is known for its superior sweetness and crunchy texture. Common red onions, such as the Acquaviva delle Fonti onion, are versatile and slightly vary in taste depending on the variety and region of cultivation.
Differences Between White and Red Onions
White onions have a stronger, more pungent flavor, making them ideal for intense dishes like soups and stews. Red onions, on the other hand, are sweet and delicate, perfect for being consumed raw or lightly cooked.
