Pickled silverskin onion delicacy

Onions were considered to be valuable medicinal herbs in ancient times, and the claim hasn’t changed through the passed centuries to the present days. In the past, they were used for treating joint pains, pharyngitis and insomnia. Today we know precisely that the beneficial potency is ensured by the high content of vitamins C, B1 and B6, and basic minerals like calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, magnesium, iron, copper and zinc. Moreover, onions also contain a rich amount of folic acid and biotin. All of these qualities come together in silverskin onion. Beside being a great delicacy to be enjoyed all year round, the daily consumption of this fine vegetable enhances the circulation, decreases blood pressure, helps to avoid the occurance of clots, and has a beneficial effect on digestion. Above all that its antioxidant potential must also be stressed, since it exceeds all other onions’ such properties.
