Onion, Where Every Dish Begins

Whether raw, sautéed, or caramelized, onion is a true kitchen essential. At Latin Specialties, we source onions for consistent quality and flavor, case after case.
Bold, sweet, and absolutely essential—onion is where every good dish begins.

Tangy topping recipe
Cebollas Encurtidas (Pickled Onions)
Thin onion slices in citrus and chile: the quick Yucatecan-style pickle that goes on tacos, tostadas and cochinita.
Ingredients
- 1 large Latin Specialties Onion, thinly sliced
- ½ cup orange juice and ½ cup lime juice (or 1 cup sour orange juice)
- ½ Latin Specialties Habanero, sliced (optional)
- ½ tsp dried Latin Specialties Oregano
- 1 tsp salt
Method
- Drop the sliced onion in boiling water for 30 seconds, then drain well (this softens the bite).
- Combine the citrus juices, salt, oregano and habanero in a jar and add the onion.
- Let it rest for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, then refrigerate. It keeps for about a week.
TipThe onion turns pink and tender as it sits: it is best after 1 to 2 hours.
