Onion

This vegetable has been used for 3500 years... As is the case with garlic it is said to help cure cold and coughing. It comes in many different types and colours and in Italy it is just as indispensable as garlic in many of the same recipes. A quick tip: when taking the skins off the onion keep it under cold running water and you will not cry...
