Why Choose Spanish Yellow Onion Plants?
- 50 plants per package: Start your onion patch with young plants rather than sowing seed.
- Sweet flavor: Enjoy harvested bulbs fresh in sandwiches and salads or cooked in everyday dishes.
- Yellow bulbs with white flesh: Grow versatile onions for slicing, grilling, roasting, and caramelizing. Final bulb size depends on growing conditions.

Planting Tips for Success
- Timing: Follow local extension guidance for short-day onion transplants and plant promptly after arrival.
- Sun and soil: Choose a sunny location with loose, fertile, well-drained soil.
- Spacing: Space plants approximately 4–6 inches apart, leaving room between rows for tending.
- Water: Maintain even moisture during active growth without waterlogging the roots.
- Feeding: Fertilize according to soil needs and label directions; avoid excessive nitrogen as bulbs swell.
- Care: Weed gently around shallow roots and avoid piling soil over developing bulbs. Staking is generally unnecessary.
- Harvest: Judge readiness as tops naturally fall and begin drying. Cure harvested bulbs in a dry, shaded, airy location.

Skillet-Caramelized Spanish Yellow Onions
Turn your harvested Spanish Yellow onions into a rich, golden topping for burgers, sandwiches, or roasted vegetables. Use mature harvested onion bulbs, not the young plants supplied for planting.
Serves: 4 as a topping. Prep: 10 minutes. Cook: 35–50 minutes.
Ingredients
- 2 large harvested Spanish Yellow onion bulbs, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2–4 tablespoons water, as needed
Directions
- Heat olive oil and butter in a wide skillet over medium-low heat.
- Add sliced onions and salt. Stir to coat, then spread into an even layer.
- Cook gently for 35–50 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until soft and deeply golden. Reduce heat if the onions darken too quickly.
- Add water a tablespoon at a time whenever browned bits collect on the pan. Stir to loosen them, keeping the onions from scorching.
- Season with pepper and serve warm.
Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in a covered container within 2 hours and use within 3–4 days.
