Onions, White Sweet
(Onions, White Sweet) We purchased these three inch diameter white sweet onions at a local farm store, where they were sold freshly harvested with the green tops and roots still attached. Later in the season they continued to sell them, but without the tops and roots, just as they would look in the supermarket. These white sweet onions are mild tasting and great eaten raw in salads and sandwiches. Select white sweet onions that are firm to the touch, particularly at the stem end, which is usually where the first signs of spoilage begin. Also make sure there are no signs of mold, which is usually black. See the nutritional chart below.

The above recipe is in keeping with God's creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): 'Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground-- everything that has the breath of life in it-- I give every green plant for food." And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.' (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live! (d-21)
