What is the best type of onion to use for salsa?
I can't believe I can't find this online. :(
Answers:
White onion = most traditional. It's got a sharper taste.
Some folks like to rinse it after chopping it to make it milder.
Yellow onions are a bit sweeter. Sweet onions like Vidalia, Walla Walla or red can also be used.
It's all a matter of taste.
If you use scallions, only use the white part. If you use the green part, consume the salsa right away. The green part tends to wilt & get slimey.
