About Buttered onion
Buttered onion is a dish made by sautéing or caramelizing onions in butter, resulting in a rich, savory flavor with a touch of sweetness. Popular in a variety of cuisines, including European and North American, it serves as a versatile side dish or a flavorful base for soups, sauces, and casseroles. Onions are naturally low in calories and rich in antioxidants, particularly quercetin, which may support heart health and boost immunity. They also provide dietary fiber and vitamin C. However, the butter adds significant fat and calories, including saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation for heart health. For a lighter alternative, olive oil or vegetable-based spreads can be used. Buttered onion hits the balance between indulgence and nutrition, offering a comforting taste with some beneficial nutrients when enjoyed mindfully.
