Organic Yellow Onion Puree

Organic yellow onion puree is made from yellow onions grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The onions are typically cooked and blended into a smooth paste. This process concentrates their flavor and makes them easier to incorporate into various food products.

Manufacturers add onion puree to provide a savory, umami flavor and aroma to foods. It can also add moisture and a subtle sweetness. Onion puree is commonly found in soups, sauces, baked goods like breads and biscuits, and frozen meals.

Onion puree is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. Onions are a source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. While generally considered healthy, consuming very large amounts of any food can lead to digestive upset in some individuals. Regulatory bodies like EFSA have evaluated onions and their components, but no specific health concerns are typically associated with their consumption in typical food amounts.
