What it is
Roasted onion is made by heating whole or sliced onions, often with oil, until they turn brown and develop a sweeter, more concentrated flavor. This process intensifies the natural sugars in the onion.
Why it's used
Manufacturers add roasted onion for its savory flavor and aroma, enhancing the taste of packaged foods. It is commonly found in frozen dinners, prepared wraps, burritos, and seasoned meat products.
Health notes
Roasted onion is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA as a food ingredient. It provides flavor and contains natural compounds found in onions, such as antioxidants. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated onion products, and no specific concerns have been raised regarding its consumption at typical dietary levels.
Allergen info
Not a major allergen. Onion is a vegetable and does not contain gluten.
