About Red caramelised onion

Red caramelised onion is a sweet and savory condiment made by slow-cooking red onions until they become soft and develop a rich, deep flavor. Often prepared with a touch of sugar or balsamic vinegar, this versatile ingredient can be found in British, European, and Mediterranean cuisines, adding a gourmet touch to dishes like burgers, quiches, or cheese boards. Red onions are naturally high in antioxidants like quercetin, and their caramelisation process retains many beneficial nutrients. However, added sugar or excessive oils during preparation may increase calorie content, making portion moderation important for a balanced diet. Known for enhancing flavor profiles without the need for excessive salt, red caramelised onion is a delicious addition to meals, combining indulgence with underlying nutritional value.
