About Peeled cipollini onions
Cipollini are a flat, squat Italian onion with a high sugar content, and peeled is essentially the only way a professional kitchen buys them: the bulb is small and awkwardly shaped, and hand-peeling a case is hours of labour for a garnish. What the sugar buys is caramelisation — they hold their shape while browning deeply, which is why they appear whole in braises, roasts and agrodolce rather than sliced into a mirepoix. They are not a substitute for pearl onions despite sitting next to them on the list; they are larger, flatter and sweeter.
Buying notes
The peeled format is a labour purchase, so it should be judged against the hours it removes rather than against unpeeled onions by the pound. Peeled alliums are cut product with a short life and no protective skin, so they go on a tight order cycle and are checked for surface slime rather than for sprouting.
