Hatch Sweet Onions

Quantity/Pack: 2 packages (3 Pounds each)
Seasonality: May – July
Origin: USA

These alliums are a sweet sign of what’s to come from New Mexico’s Hatch Valley, where the special soil and unique micro-climate produce an onion of exceptional sweetness and texture. Hatch Sweet Onions are a seasonal item only available for a short time, right before the fresh Hatch pepper season begins. 

Consider these your seasonal, all-purpose cooking onions! They’re mildly sweet in flavor with a relatively high water content making them super juicy! You can use them raw or cooked, but they especially lend themselves to grilling and pickling applications.

Storage Tip: Store in a cool, dark, dry and well-ventilated area. Do not store onions with potatoes; spuds give off moisture that can cause your onions to spoil quickly.

Fun fact: To cut the bite of raw onions, let them chill in an ice bath for 30 minutes before using.
