Wholegood brown onions are an excellent staple for your daily cooking. Firm, and fresh, they have a brown outer skin that gives way to crisp white layers of juicy flesh. While raw onions are a pungent allium with savoury notes from the sulphurous compounds found in their bulbs and stems, cooked onions mellow into sweetness and add depth and body to stews, sauces and stir fries.
