Every season, we northern-tier growers fret over the always-late red onions. Will they fully ripen, cure and keep? Cabernet released us from this worry with fancy red onions ready for fresh use and market in late July. By Aug. 9, two-thirds of the crop had lain down, a full week before New York Early began its descent. By Aug. 31, Cabernet was firm, cured and ready for 3–4 months storage. No shortcomings in this classy uniform early red. The 3½" wide, 8 oz single-centered globes slice to the perfect size to top a large burger. Raw, the rings are many and thin, finely textured and crunchy, sweet and slightly spicy. Cooked, the excellent aroma and full sweetness will induce you to use them up long before they reach their storage limit. Intermediate day suitable for mid-Atlantic through northern areas.
