RED ONIONS (Allium cepa L.) Premium Red Onions are distinguished by their deep purple-red skin and layered flesh ranging from magenta to white. They are the most antioxidant-rich onion variety, containing high levels of anthocyanins (the same pigments found in berries and red wine) and quercetin, making them both nutritionally superior and visually striking. Red onions offer a more robust, slightly peppery flavor compared to white onions, with a crisp texture that holds up well in raw applications. In Nigerian cuisine, red onions are preferred for dishes requiring bold flavor and color, such as Ofe Akwu  (banga soup), Efo Riro , and fresh salads. Their high anthocyanin content provides cardio-protective benefits and potential cancer risk reduction properties. Nutritional Components (Per 100g raw red onion) Energy: 40-44 kcal Protein: 1.0-1.3g Fat: 0g Carbohydrates: 9-10g Dietary Fiber: 1.8-2.0g Sugars: 4-5g Vitamin C: 8-12mg Vitamin A: Trace Folate (B9): 19-25µg Potassium: 150-175mg Phosphorus: 25-35mg Quercetin: Higher Anthocyanins: 10-50mg Total Phenols: Higher Antioxidant Capacity: Superior Key Benefits:  Highest antioxidant capacity among onion varieties due to anthocyanins and quercetin. Cardio-protective effects may reduce heart disease risk. Potential cancer risk reduction properties. Anti-inflammatory effects help combat chronic diseases. Higher vitamin C content supports immune function. Greater diversity of flavonoid compounds compared to white and yellow onions. Rich in ferulic acid, chlorogenic acid, and other phenolic acids with health-promoting properties. Storage Instructions Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from heat and light Shelf life: 2-4 months when properly stored (slightly longer than white onions due to higher antioxidant content) Temperature: 0-4°C (refrigerator) optimal; room temperature (15-20°C) acceptable for 2-3 weeks Light protection:  Keep in dark place—light degrades anthocyanins (red pigments) Humidity: Low humidity (60-65%) preferred to prevent mold while maintaining firmness Ventilation: Essential—never store in sealed plastic; use mesh or paper bags Separation: Store away from potatoes and ethylene-producing fruits Pre-cut storage: Refrigerate in airtight containers; use within 7-10 days (color may bleed) Signs of spoilage: Softening, dark spots, mold, or strong fermenting odor Freezing: Slice and freeze for up to 8 months; suitable for cooked applications only
