Small onions, or chota pyaz, are miniature versions of regular onions with a more delicate taste. Often used in pickling, curries, and stews, they provide a mild sweetness and depth of flavor. Their small size makes them easy to cook whole or use in dishes where uniform texture is desired. Popular in Indian and South Asian cooking, they are especially suited for tandoori and slow-cooked recipes. Choose small onions that are firm and dry-skinned for best results. They are a handy kitchen ingredient for adding traditional flavor with minimal preparation effort.
