Round Red Onion from Tropea (Allium cepa)
Round Red Onion of Tropea (Allium cepa): Another natural from our beloved Calabrian region, where family gardens have been carrying on their selections from one generation to the next; It is the home to the fabulous Belmonte Calabro tomato, and of this spectacular onion variety that holds a beautiful colour, great sweetness, and crunchy pulp. Sow it when temperatures are stable above 14ºC in seedbeds, transplant it when the plant reaches 15 cm. Irrigate only in the absence of rainfall: Onions from Tropea (as well as onions in general) are undemanding and very resistant vegetables. It is ready for harvest when the aerial and visible part begins to bend and turn yellow. Bring the fabulous scent of Southern Italy traditions to your table.
