Sweet Red Onions for Fresh Eating & Cooking Rich red skins with crisp flesh Naturally sweet flavour Harvest from early summer Delicious raw as well as cooked Good keeping qualities after harvest ‘Red Winter’ brings rich colour and a sweeter flavour to your homegrown onion crop. The rounded bulbs develop attractive red skins around crisp flesh, giving you a versatile alternative to traditional golden onions. Its mild sweetness really comes into its own when the onions are eaten fresh, making this a great variety for summer salads, sandwiches and salsas. The bulbs are just as useful cooked, whether you’re roasting them, adding them to sauces or slowly caramelising them. With an early summer harvest and good keeping qualities, you can enjoy the first bulbs fresh from the garden before drying the best of the remaining crop to use later.
