About this listen

In this episode of Eat My Globe, our host, Simon Majumdar, looks at the story of the humble onion. He will look at how it went from being used in the very first recipe found on clay tablets in Mesopotamia, to its spread throughout the world. He will also discuss how some wild onions, like ramps, are now part of the “foodie” world, to how onions became a rare item in Great Britain during World War II. He will also talk about many other varieties of onions we now have today. It is a fascinating story.
