So how long have onions been around for?
History has indicated they are the oldest cultivated vegetable and have been popular in ancient Egypt and India.
So the other part that I asked in an earlier blog (September and Fall … Falling into Flavour with Onions) was how many ways are onions available. Here are a few ways:
- fresh
- dried
- powdered
- flaked
Aside from how they are available, onions in food can be boiled, fried, ground to paste. Onions typically go very well with tomatoes, ginger, garlic, meats, and potatoes. Enjoy them in your meals!
Happy kitchening, cooking & cuisine!
