Onions belong to the Allium family of plants, which also includes chives, garlic, and leeks. These vegetables have characteristic pungent flavors and some medicinal properties.The taste of these vegetables can range from sweet and juicy to sharp, spicy, and pungent, often depending on the season in which people grow and consume them.
Uses: Including onion in a dish is a great way to boost the flavor without adding calories, fat, or sodium. Onions are a staple in many kitchens and complement most dishes. People can use raw chopped onion in a sandwich filling or as a salad topping. This vegetable also makes a tasty addition to salsas and dips. They also taste great when people sautee, roast, grill, or caramelize them.
WHY DOES ONION MAKE YOU CRY? Onions have a reputation for making people cry during the cutting or chopping process. This response occurs due to the presence of a gas called syn-Propanethial-S-oxide.This chemical is a compound liquid that acts as a lachrymatory agent, meaning that it causes tears or stings the eyes.
To reduce tears during chopping, the National Onion Association recommend chilling an onion for 30 minutes then cutting off its top. The person should then peel the outer layer of the onion and leave the root intact, as this part has the highest concentration of lachrymatory agents.
