Onions

What are your go to onions?

White ?

Yellow?

Sweet (Vidalia) ?

Red?

Other?

And what is the difference between white and yellow?

Is there one you are 'supposed' to use?

I usually use the red for raw preparations and the yellow for cooked. I use the sweet when I am carmelizing.

Re: Onions

If I'm making up my own recipes, I use vidalia or red.

If I'm following a recipe, I use what they say to use.

Re: Onions

Red for salads and yellow or cippolini for cooking.

Re: Onions

I love vidalia (sweet) onions. I use it raw on bagels and lox and I also cook with it. I use yellow onions to cook with as well, smaller ones, if they are on sale but I still prefer vidalia.

I use red onions, raw and cooked. Raw in guacamole and salads or salsas but cooked in meat I am making mexican or spanish style.

Re: Onions

I use a lot of different types. For general cooking I'm usually using Vidalia. I like Red onions for salads - I also like spring onions for salads when they are available.

vidalia for cooking and red for raw

Re: Onions

I like Spanish/White or Sweet onions for cooking. I almost never use yellow onions.

Red for guac and salads and burgers.

Shallots for risotto.
