Hi @iamchimary
Red and white onions are delicious, and yes, as you say, they add a unique flavor to sauces and salads. They also need to be ripe, as I've seen them sometimes harvested early and have a plastic-like taste, so farmers should wait for the right time to harvest them. And of course, it's nice to cry when you cut an onion.
Thank you for participating in the vegan mini-contest.
