Description
White onions in extra virgin olive oil, with oregano and black pepper.
Freshly picked white onions are processed within a few hours to keep their aroma and crunch. They are washed, cut into thin strips and blanched for a few minutes in water, vinegar and salt, then seasoned with oregano and black pepper, covered with extra virgin olive oil and pasteurised. The ingredients are white onion, extra virgin olive oil, oregano, black pepper and salt. The taste balances the natural sweetness of the onion with the warmth of the spices.
For restaurants and chefs. Onion strips in oil are a quick way to add texture and a sweet-savoury note. Pile them on bruschetta and toasted bread, add them to rustic boards, or serve them with grilled meat and roasts. In a burger or a hot dog they replace raw or fried onion with no prep at all. A few strips with their oil also lift a potato salad or a plate of boiled beans.
For specialty and Italian stores. Onions in oil are less common on export shelves than artichokes or peppers, which makes this jar a discovery item within the antipasti range. The thin strips, the oregano and the black pepper are visible through the glass, and the sweet profile appeals to customers who find raw onion too sharp. Pair it with cured meats and bread in a barbecue or picnic basket. The 36-month shelf life from production keeps it safe as a slower line.
