Caramelized Onions
Caramelized Onions are onions that have been slowly browned until sweet and deeply flavored, commonly used in European and American cooking as a topping, base for sauces, or flavoring for sandwiches and stews. They are higher in simple sugars due to the cooking process, providing about 9.8g of sugar per 100g. While flavorful and a source of some fiber and trace minerals, they tend to contain added fat and concentrated sugars from caramelization; they also retain antioxidant polyphenols typical of onions, which contribute modestly to their nutritional value.
