Rosa DiMilano, a red one that is an excellent keeper, and Stuttgarter that I actually saved seeds from.
I also ordered Stuttgarter onion sets just in case the plants don’t start well.
The Stuttgarter are also excellent keepers. The ones I have in the garage are still in great shape, juicy, crisp, and some are just barely starting to show a green shoot in the center when we cut them open.
I’ll likely have to break down and buy some before next season’s crop comes in, but what a great feeling of satisfaction knowing that they were so successful.
I’ve heard of that red, and ‘Stuttgarter’ is the ‘yellow’ in the onion set mix (yellow, white and red) that Jung’s sells, so I’ve grown that one, too.
Probably the best tasting onion I’ve ever had is ‘Candy.’ You can buy that as plants, versus sets. It’s not the best keeper, but I chop and freeze onions on a cookie sheet, then bag them up for future cooking.
To me, a bag of chopped onions in the freezer, all ready to go, is the ULTIMATE in luxury. :)
