Pearl Onions

Pearl Onions

EverydayFresh

Pearl onions are small, round alliums typically measuring one inch or less in diameter, distinguished from standard onions by their miniature size and sweeter, milder flavor profile. These tiny onions are often served whole and are particularly valued in braised dishes, stews, and as glazed side dishes. Fresh pearl onions contain similar nutritional benefits to regular onions, including antioxidants and beneficial sulfur compounds, while offering a more delicate presentation and convenient single-serving size.
