We are talking about the&nbsp;<strong>onion.<\/strong>&nbsp;Used a lot in Italian preparations, it is an indispensable ingredient for many of us. But have you ever wondered what those&nbsp;<strong>black spots<\/strong>&nbsp;are ? Let&#8217;s find out together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Onion, a fundamental ingredient&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have just specified,&nbsp;<strong>onion<\/strong>&nbsp;is one of those fundamental ingredients for our cuisine and if we think about it, most of the preparations require little or a lot of onion. Clearly we are talking about a very strong taste that some prefer to give up, but it is part of us Italians. In fact, in every restaurant and in every kitchen at least one onion cannot be&nbsp;<strong>missing<\/strong>&nbsp;.What are black spots on onions? \u2013 Nanopress.it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>We are also talking about a very cheap<\/strong>&nbsp;food&nbsp;that can be used in the most varied ways possible. In fact, let&#8217;s think about how many times we have cut it very thinly for a sauce, or cut it in half and toasted it on the barbecue or on a griddle, or boiled it. In short, the onion can be eaten in many different ways, but sometimes we look at it and ask ourselves if we should&nbsp;<strong>throw<\/strong>&nbsp;it away or eat it. Let&#8217;s see the details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Black Spots on Onions, What Are They?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Onions are a&nbsp;<strong>food<\/strong>&nbsp;that is so good and used in our kitchen, but they are unpleasant to clean and cut. In fact, as we all know, most of them literally make us&nbsp;<strong>cry<\/strong>&nbsp;and this is completely normal. In fact, it is a chemical reaction that affects the taste buds and tear ducts.What are black spots on onions? \u2013 Nanopress.it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once this \u201ctragic moment\u201d is over, you can use it and indulge yourself with what you like best. In fact, it is not only used to give that extra touch of flavor, but also to eat alone. Even though our breath will not be very pleasant after consuming it, for many of us it represents something magical to&nbsp;<strong>savor.<\/strong>&nbsp;Very often, however, we happen to notice strange stains on them and we don\u2019t know exactly how to behave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A healthy and good onion to eat will have a certain&nbsp;<strong>appearance,<\/strong>&nbsp;while when there is something wrong we must be able to understand what it is and above all if it is the case to&nbsp;<strong>throw it in the garbage<\/strong>&nbsp;or if there is a way to recover it. So, when is the onion to be thrown away and when not?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to recognize a healthy onion and when black spots are dangerous<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Shopping time is a very important moment in which we must pay&nbsp;<strong>attention<\/strong>&nbsp;to what we buy, especially when it comes to fruit and vegetables. In fact, sometimes it happens that at the supermarket we see perfectly displayed foods, while when we get home we are&nbsp;<strong>forced<\/strong>&nbsp;to consume them immediately or even throw them away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Choosing a good and healthy onion<\/strong>&nbsp;is not as complicated as many other things, but it still requires the right attention. In fact, onions that appear firm and with a compact layer are good especially if the outer part of the stem is dry. However, sometimes we notice small or large&nbsp;<strong>black spots<\/strong>&nbsp;and this does not only happen at the supermarket, but also at home in the pantry or in the refrigerator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Faced with this&nbsp;<strong>characteristic<\/strong>&nbsp;, we ask ourselves what we should do, whether it is the case to throw them in the garbage or if something can be recovered. These black spots are nothing other than aspergillus&nbsp;<em>niger<\/em>&nbsp;, a very common&nbsp;<strong>fungus<\/strong>&nbsp;present in the soil. However, this does not mean that the onion is destined for a sad fate. Only&nbsp;<strong>the smell<\/strong>&nbsp;will tell us what we should do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If the food has&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/imilanesi.nanopress.it\/macchie-sul-divano-come-rimuoverle-in-pochi-minuti-senza-fatica-come-nuovo\/\">black spots<\/a>&nbsp;, but its smell is typical of onion, then it will be enough&nbsp;<strong>to remove<\/strong>&nbsp;the black part, wash the onion thoroughly and use it without worries. If the onion looks good, but has a rotten smell&nbsp;<strong>,<\/strong>&nbsp;then it means that we must throw it away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is also confirmed by expert doctors, such as&nbsp;<strong>Doctor Hassan Gourama<\/strong>&nbsp;who defined the onion as a food with recoverable mold. This means that if you remove the affected part and wash it thoroughly, then it can be recovered and safely&nbsp;<strong>consumed.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Onion is one of those ingredients that can never be missing in Italian cuisine.
