Frozen Onions

Frozen onions are picked and processed at their prime, then flash-frozen to lock in flavor. This process also weakens cell walls, making frozen onions easier to cook.

Types of Onions
You can choose from a variety of onions, including yellow, red, white, and green onions (also called scallions) and shallots.

Red onions

All types of onions are good for you, but this dark reddish-purple variety, sometimes called purple onion, has especially high levels of quercetin and other helpful plant compounds known as flavonoids. Flavonoids give many fruits, vegetables, and flowers their colors.

Red onions have a mild, sweet taste and add color and flavor to many dishes. Use them raw as a crunchy addition to salads, sandwiches, and salsa.

Yellow onions

Try cooking these strongly flavored yellow-brown onions to tame their sharp taste. Sautéing, roasting, grilling, or caramelizing them brings out their sweetness.

White onions

White onions are milder than yellow onions. Dice them to use raw in guacamole and as a garnish for tacos, or slice them to use as a pizza topping.
