Selection, Handing and Storage Tips:
A fresh Vidalia Sweet Onion has a light golden-brown bulb and a white interior. Its shape is rounded on the bottom and somewhat flat on the top or stem end. To select the best Vidalias look for firm onions without decay or blemishes. There should be no sprouts attached and the skins should be dry.
Vidalia Onions have a higher water and sugar content than other storage onions, making them susceptible to bruising and therefore, must be handled with care by the grower, retailer and consumer. The key to keeping Vidalia Onions fresh is to keep them cool, dry, and separated. Storage Suggestions: In the refrigerator, wrap each onion separately in foil or paper towels. In the legs of clean pantyhose. Tie a knot between each Vidalia Onion and cut above the knot when you want one. Hang in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Vidalia Onions can be frozen and used in Soups, Sauces, Casseroles, etc. |
