The sweet onion is an essential ingredient in Mediterranean cooking. This variety is grown in Spain and is known for its mild flavor. The product is available in bags of 0.500 kg and costs approximately €4.65 per kilo. It is rich in vitamins A, B1, C, and E as well as minerals and folic acid, making it beneficial for health due to its tonic, diuretic, and cleansing properties. It can be consumed raw for better nutrient absorption, and its juice mixed with lemon and honey may relieve cough. It is recommended to store in a cool, dry place outside of the refrigerator to avoid loss of flavor and aroma. A trick to avoid irritation when cutting the onion is to chill it in the freezer for 10 minutes.
