WINTER INGREDIENTS
The winter months bring a host of different ingredients that can be used in wide range of hearty recipes. Red onions , winter squash and potatoes are popular choices during this season as they can help bring a comforting warmth to dishes that are simply delicious.
Red Onion
Not all red onions are milder and sweeter than the white or brown onion. Whilst they can be enjoyed raw in salads or on burgers, they can pack a strong flavour punch. The flavour of a red onion can vary throughout the year, depending on length of storage, variety and soil type and that’s why this vegetable lends itself well to sweet and savory dishes like sweet jam or chutney.
Colouring Red onions develop their characteristic as they mature. When slicing open the red onion, don’t be alarmed if the colour isn’t vibrant, it just means the onion is fresher. 1
