What is White onions?
Firm white-skinned cooking onion with a cleaner, sharper, less sweet bite than yellow and a crisp texture that holds up raw. White flesh, papery white skin.
The taqueria standard: diced raw over tacos al pastor and carne asada, into pico de gallo and salsa verde, pickled for cemitas. Also the choice for many Chinese and South Asian dishes where you want onion flavor without yellow-onion sweetness.

What's behind the price
NYC produce runs through the high-volume houses that feed Hunts Point and the wider metro — California, Florida, Mexico, and Northeast farms when they're in season. That's why a case rate on white onions can shift week to week.
Across the year the trend has been up. Buying what's in season is still the most reliable way to keep produce cost in check.
Per case or per pound?
Produce is sold by the case, with a per-pound rate shown where it helps you compare. Order on the unit that matches your prep so you're not throwing money out on shrink — perishables don't wait.
Sold in 25- or 50-lb sacks. Pick heavy, rock-hard bulbs with dry papery skin and tight necks, soft shoulders or sprouting greens mean the sack is turning. Store cool, dry and dark, never near potatoes.
