Allium Cepa AKA Onion
What onions look like? Onions are circular and come in a variety of colors and each color has a slightly different flavor. The yellow Onion is the least sweet.
What does onion taste like? Onions taste a little like a stronger version of leek. They also have a more favorable texture then leek. Though there are slight differences in taste amongst the many types of onions. My favorite is the yellow onion, and second favorite is the red onion. My husband's favorite are Vidalia onions.
How to eat onions: Onions seem to be a staple for all kitchens. Onions can be eaten raw in salads (Wouldn't recommend in large amounts unless you are adjusted to the taste), fried in food, or boiled in soup. You can eat an onion with just about anything. A very famous dish is the blooming onion. My favorite way to eat onions is with beans and rice.
