Milder and sweeter than their white cousins, these red onions taste incredible raw, sliced razor thin. Perfect for salads or anything that calls for a deliciously sweet onion, really.

Producer
Our red onions come from Nick Walton's Norfolk fields. He lives on the gorgeous Bagthorpe Farm, not far from the Norfolk coast, and rotates his crops regularly to get a rich diversity of soils, plants and wildlife. He also grows our other onions and carrots at different points in the year, an organic hero.
Ingredients & allergens
Abel & Cole handles celery, celeriac and nuts on site. Due to our packing process and re-use of boxes there is a risk of cross-contamination from these, and all other allergens.
Storage & prep
To avoid weeping buckets when it comes to chopping time, follow these tips: - Chill your onions in the fridge before slicing - the colder they are, the better - Use a sharp knife - blunt knives burst more of those tear-inducing onion cells - Slice under a trickle of water - it helps wash away the pongy vapours - Wear swimming goggles
Store your onions in the fridge, avoiding dampness, or in a cool dark larder.
Where the
wild things are
We all love butterflies, birds and bees. Choosing organic is better for the environment. Organic farms encourage wildlife and biodiversity (by not using chemical sprays, and by having more hedgerows, fallow land and wildflowers).
