About This Product

Red onions are known for their mild sweetness, vibrant colour and crisp texture — making them perfect for salads, sandwiches and fresh dishes. Compared to brown onions, they have a slightly sweeter and less pungent taste, which makes them ideal for eating raw as well as lightly cooked recipes.

Each 1kg pack is carefully selected for freshness, firmness and colour. High-quality red onions should have deep purple skin, tight layers and no soft spots or sprouting.

Sourced from trusted growers and delivered fresh across Ashtead, Leatherhead, Fetcham, Bookham and Effingham before 7am.
