Sadly, I’ve never quite been able to recreate the beauty of those remarkable onions, but they set me off on the road of onion discovery.

But today everyday meals almost always consist of a single course and one portion of vegetables. Sometimes the single course is made up of several side dishes, where cooked and raw vegetables are placed alongside, leaving the eater free to decide whether and how to mix.

While the crust is cooling, combine eggs, ricotta, milk, parsley and salt. Mix well to combine then add basil leaves and onions. Stir gently. The versatile vegetable can also be eaten raw.

Do not stir, just gently move the onions with a spoon. It represents a real gastronomic excellence in the Italian cooking tradition. It can be prepared in bitter-sweet or boiled; It is also suitable for preservation in oil or vinegar. In addition, it is a food with remarkable nutritional and therapeutic properties, to be consumed also on a diet, albeit with some precautions.
