1 ONION Onions are yellow, red or white. They have firm flesh and dry, crackly outer skins. Avoid any soft spots or sprouts. Onions may be eaten raw or cooked. To prepare, remove outer layer of skin and chop. Onions may be boiled, braised, baked, microwaved or sautéed. Green onions (scallions) have a smooth root and hollow green stem; both can be eaten and have a mild flavor. Yellow onions are full flavored and work in most cooking. When cooked, they become sweeter and turn brown. Onions provide flavor and healthpromoting phytochemicals and nutrients. White onions are used in classic Mexican cuisine. Store in a cool, dry space away from bright light. Lemon juice or vinegar removes the smell from hands. Chill in the refrigerator before preparing them to reduce the chance of tears. Red Yellow Sweetest, great for cooking, or eating raw Chopped and sautéed great base flavor for soups Red onions are used fresh or grilled. Most popular raw on burgers, fresh salads, salsas Slightly stronger flavor than yellow and white onions Green Milder and softer due to less maturity Use root and stem as garnish, omelets, soups Sout h Dakot a St at e Univer sit y, Sout h D a kot a c ount i es, a nd U.S. D epa r t m ent of Agr i c ul tur e c ooper a t i ng.

3 ONION Onions are yellow, red or white. They have firm flesh and dry, crackly outer skins. Avoid any soft spots or sprouts. Green onions (scallions) have a smooth root and hollow green stem; both are edible and have a mild flavor. Store in a cool, dry space, away from bright light. Chill in the refrigerator to reduce the chance of tears before peeling and chopping. Onions may be eaten raw, boiled, braised, baked, microwaved or sautéed. Yellow onions are full flavored and work in most cooking, white are common in Mexican cuisine, and red are best fresh or grilled.
