Do You Like Onions ? Have you ever given any thought about if onions are good for us or not?
So here is something I found out just recently, the Nutritional Composition of Raw Onions offer up 10% or more of the daily value for vitamin C, vitamin B-6 and manganese. Onions also contain small amounts of calcium, iron, foliate, magnesium, phosphorus and potassium and the antioxidants quercetin, a powerful compound that has been suggested to play a role in preventing cancer, especially stomach and colorectal cancers. Dump whole onions with skin in slow cooker to make Slow Cooker Onion Jam. A delicious side dish to pair with most any other main dish. Take four or five onions, skin and all and put them in the bottom of a slow cooker and cook them on High for 5 Hours. Then Pull the onions out and peel the skins off. Take kitchen knife and cut the onions into smaller pieces and throw them in a bowl. Add equal parts to taste of, Salt, Pepper, Cumin, Brown Sugar, Apple Cider Vinegar and stir together. Now your ready to serve. Serve the Jam up on crackers, or as a side to some spicy fried or Grilled Chicken or even a juicy Steak or Pork Chop. No mater what the main dish the Onion Jam is sure to be a hit. Did I mention that A mixture of onion juice and honey (which helps make it less pungent) is said to be effective as a cure for fever, common cold, allergies, etc. Until Next Time, Happy Healthy Eating! |
