The Indian onion is referred to as "Pyaz" or "Kanda" in Hindi and is arguably the most popular vegetable in India. This onion is similar to the classic Red onion in appearance, having a thin red outer skin that is paper thin. Also called the Red Indian onion, this onion offers a pungent onion flavor as well as aroma when sliced.
Roasted or charred, pickled or eaten raw, onions are versatile and should be utilized as a savory vegetable versus a seasoning.
