Ruby onions are a vibrant variety of red onions known for their striking color and sweet, mild flavor. Characterized by their deep purple skin and crisp white flesh tinged with red, Ruby onions add a pop of color to salads, salsas, and various dishes. They are typically medium to large in size, making them versatile for both raw and cooked applications. Originating from traditional onion cultivation, Ruby onions are prized for their ability to balance sweetness with a subtle bite, enhancing the taste of many recipes. They are often used in fresh preparations like salads and sandwiches, but they also caramelize beautifully when cooked, bringing out their natural sugars. Harvesting typically occurs in late summer to early fall, about 90-100 days after planting, when the tops begin to yellow and fall over. Ruby onions thrive in well-drained soil and full sun, making them a popular choice for home gardeners.
