Allium cepa
plant overview
sweet and pungent onion
Onion is a vegetable and herb that resides in the same botanical family with
chives and garlic. The sharp bite and lingering aftertaste of raw onion is
due to the oxygenation of the same enzymes that cause watering eyes when
cutting into the fresh bulb. Dried onion, whether granulated or powdered,
has a milder taste, is much easier on tear ducts and has the added benefit
of possessing a long shelf life. Dried and chopped or granulated onion is
added directly to foods while cooking and to savory breads and rolls prior
to baking. Powdered onion is used as seasoning to enhance the flavor of
foods, especially dips and creamy salads.
