Pearl Onion
Pearl Onion or Baby, button, or even silverskin onion in the United Kingdom; creamers in the US, is a tiny white dried onion with a diameter of 0.5 inches. It has a connection with leek, a vegetable. This can be distinguished from the common onion based on storage leaf, quite similar to garlic. In France, the native call is an onion grelot. When these are put together in some basket, they look like pearls. Perhaps this is the reason why to call it pearl onion.
Uses and Storage of Pearl Onion
Mostly, it is cultivated in many parts of Europe, like the Netherlands, Italy, and Germany, both domestically as well as commercially. It is widely used in pickling. This particular variety of onions is ready to harvest in ninety days or so. And can be stored in a cool and dry place for even thirty days.
Interestingly, its taste is a bit sweeter than that of the common onion. Therefore it has been in use to add on a sweet note as far as mid-20th century American casserole dishes are concerned. Moreover, it can be used in stew soups; fried with other vegetables; meat dishes, and more. You would find it a bit difficult to peel, unlike the common onions.
Nutrients Check and Health Benefit of Pearl Onion
One thing that makes onions “friendly” is the fact that they are easy to add to the diet. Onions are nutrient-dense. That means they are low in calories but rich in nutrients and vitamins. An average-sized onion contains just 44 calories but it has a quite decent amount of fiber, minerals, and vitamins. For instance, they are a high source of vitamin C that maintains immune health; tissue repair, and iron absorption accordingly.
