Description

Yellow onion, often known as brown onion, is a common ingredient in cooking, adored for its versatile and well-balanced flavor. This particular variety of onion has a pale golden skin that encases layers of white, firm flesh. They range in size from medium to large.

Yellow onions present a high sulfur content, which allows them to impart a pungent, strong aroma when chopped. This can often make the eyes water. When cooked, yellow onions deliver a savory bite and a sweet, complex flavor. They caramelize well, adding rich depth to soups, stews, and stir-frys.

In most Western dishes, yellow onions are considered the all-around, go-to onion choice with their full-bodied taste, colorful presentation, and multiple health benefits, which include high vitamin C content, fiber, and certain types of antioxidants.

Grocery Store Location

Yellow onions can usually be found in the produce section of a grocery store. They are often displayed in bins or on shelves with other varieties of onions and root vegetables.
