Senshu Onion from Izumiotsu
These sweet new onions are perfect for spring salads. In Izumiotsu City, the 'Senshu Onion'—a representative vegetable of the Senshu region—is cultivated. The Senshu region is often called the 'birthplace of onion cultivation in Japan' and has a long history of being grown as a secondary crop in rice paddies since the Meiji era. The warm climate and well-drained soil produce onions that are juicy and sweet. In particular, the new onions harvested in early spring are attractive because they are soft, have little pungency, and are delicious even when eaten raw. When thinly sliced for a salad, a refreshing sweetness spreads in your mouth along with a crisp texture. If sautéed slowly, they develop a melt-in-your-mouth sweetness. It is a flavor the Senshu region is proud of, adding color to the spring dining table.
