ONIONS - STORAGE

Storage onions have been through the curing process, allowing the several outer layers to dry, providing a barrier from outside pathogens that cause onions to expire. Yellow onions tend to have a higher water content, making them sweeter tasting and great for cooking, but results in a shorter shelf life. Red onions tend to be more pungent and less watery, making them great for eating raw or cooking, resulting in a longer shelf life than yellow onions.

STORAGE: Store outside of fridge, away from direct sunlight with good ventilation. Onions can be stored with garlic and shallots. Store onions away from potatoes and apples. Storage onions can last for 4-6 months.
