Red Spring Onion from Basilicata

The Solarelli Red Spring Onion from Basilicata is a typical product of the Basilicata region, where it is grown with care and passion by our producers. Its distinctive colour ranges from deep red shades to white at the base.

Round or slightly elongated in shape, the Red Spring Onion has a sweet taste and a delicate, less pungent aroma than white or golden onions. It has remarkable nutritional properties, being rich in potassium, magnesium, vitamin A, and, most importantly, iron. This onion is highly versatile in cooking and can add a particularly aromatic touch to many dishes. It can be eaten raw (thinly sliced with just oil, salt, and pepper), added to mixed and potato salads, roasted in the oven, or used as the main ingredient in savory pies (torte salate) and focaccia bread. It is available from December to June.

All Solarelli-branded Red Spring Onions from Basilicata meet high quality standards for taste, aroma, and sweetness, ensuring a consistently excellent product
