Onions are a relatively common delicacy in our lives. Although onions taste delicious, there are still many people who don’t like cutting onions. When chopping onions, the smell they release can often make people cry. The onions we usually buy for cooking are usually purple-skinned onions. Did you know that there is also a white-skinned onion?
Today Xiao Nuan will tell you what is the difference between the "white skin" and the "purple skin" of onions? Many people don’t know this, so don’t buy the wrong one next time. Purple-skinned ones are more common in vegetable markets, but white-skinned ones are also more common, but many of us don’t notice its existence. Let’s take a look at the differences between purple-skinned onions and white-skinned onions!
First of all, the nutrition between them is different. Purple onions are richer in anthocyanins and protein. Eating them is very good for our bodies. At the same time, people suffering from colds and coughs will also use purple onions to cook or steam them directly to eat, which also has the effect of disinfection. White onions are rich in carotene and vitamins. Those who want to supplement their body's vitamins can get them by eating white onions.
These two different onions also taste different. Purple-skinned onions taste more pungent and are often used as a side dish. But white-skinned onions are lighter, suitable for eating raw, and have a sweet taste when eaten. The white ones are delicious when fried.
