About Marinated red onion

Marinated red onions are a zesty condiment featuring thinly sliced red onions soaked in a tangy mixture of vinegar, water, salt, and often a touch of sweetness like sugar or honey. Commonly found in Mediterranean, Mexican, and South American cuisines, these onions add a burst of flavor and vibrant color to salads, tacos, grilled meats, and more. Packed with antioxidants such as quercetin, red onions are known for their anti-inflammatory properties, while the vinegar aids digestion and balances blood sugar levels. Low in calories but high in flavor, they enhance meals without adding unhealthy fats or excess sodium. However, individuals sensitive to acidic foods might experience mild discomfort, and added sugar, if used, can contribute to extra calories. Overall, marinated red onions are a quick, health-conscious way to brighten your dishes.
