    Onion


    Onion is known to be the #1 ingredient in gourmet cooking. It dissipates the unacceptable smell of meat. Meat cooked with onions is very palatable. Whether meat is fried, boiled into broth, roasted, or cooked with rice, onions are normally used to enhance the flavor and aroma. In ancient days the people used to put cut onions on their skin to cure insect bites and stings and burns. Onion was used to combat cholera, diarrhea, weakness, influenza, common cold, cough, ear pain and many other diseases. Onion should be eaten not raw but cooked because raw onion causes the mouth to smell bad. Onion is used to combat oozing of the ears. If a selahi (stick) is dipped into onion seeds ground and mixed with honey, and then drawn across the eye, it prevents cataracts. Onion seed oil is also known to be used for hair growth. Onion is also utilized as anti-vomiting medicine and dissolver of gallstones and kidney stones. Onion and onion seed (blackseed) are utilized against hepatitis, chronic cough, burning of the chest, chest congestion, and as a diuretic. When cooked with meat onion makes the meat easily digestible. Soaking onion in salt and vinegar removes onion’s side effects. Eating onion so treated stimulates the appetite. Onion is also known as an aphrodisiac. If one quarter pound of onion juice is cooked with sugar and is given to people with piles or hemorrhoids, they can be cured.
