Red small onion(ulli )

Red small onions, commonly known as Ulli in South India, are aromatic and flavorful with a slightly sweet and pungent taste. Smaller than regular onions, they are a key ingredient in traditional Indian cooking, especially in Kerala and Tamil Nadu cuisines.

Storage & Use:
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place—avoid refrigeration to prevent spoilage. These onions are perfect for tempering, making spicy gravies, chutneys, sambar, and pickles. They can also be caramelized for a rich, sweet base in curries.

Benefits:
Red small onions are packed with antioxidants and are known to support heart health and digestion. They also have anti-inflammatory properties.
Tip: Soak peeled onions in warm water for a few minutes to make peeling easier and reduce the sharpness when chopping.
