Allium Cepa Red Creole Onion

The Allium cepa 'Red Creole' onion is a distinctive variety known for its vibrant red skin and robust flavor. It is a long-day onion, thriving in areas with extended daylight hours, and is characterized by its medium to large size and round shape. The Red Creole onion has a firm, crisp texture and a pungent, slightly sweet taste that makes it ideal for raw use in salads or for cooking. Its high anthocyanin content not only gives it its characteristic deep red color but also contributes to its antioxidant properties. Additionally, this onion is well-suited for storage, often retaining its quality for several months when kept in a cool, dry place.
