De La Terre Cipolle Borettane Onions Agrodolce

Marinated onions are hard to find, so when I was browsing the preserved vegetables section at Baldor Foods and saw these, I picked them up. The price wasn't too bad, at just over $10 a pound, since I was ordering a bunch and incremental shipping was not too high. Package shown below.

Cooking Notes: As with other De La Terre products, these came packaged in a plastic tray with a film cover that needed to be cut through. Leftovers need to be stored in another container.

Eating Notes: Very mild, as befits a cipollini onion. The sweet and sour sauce was subtle; maybe a shade too subtle for our liking. To me, the sauce was so subdued the onions tasted a bit oily from their broth. Unless I specifically needed this type of marinated onion for a recipe I'll probably pass and try something else in the future.

Availability: De La Terre is the house brand of Baldor Specialty Foods, and the onions are available in their online store.
