Their traditional cultivation ensures that every bulb meets strict quality standards and is grown using traditional methods unique to the Roscoff region.
Appearance
Roscoff onions are easily recognised by their pearly pink skin and firm, crisp texture.
They offer a mild, sweet, and nuanced taste that enhances both raw and cooked dishes.
Culinary Versatility
Highly adaptable, these onions shine whether caramelised, roasted, added to soups and sauces, or served raw in salads.
Shelf Life
Naturally long-lasting, Roscoff onions store well, making them a reliable pantry staple.
Origin
Cultivated in Brittany since the 17th century, they flourish in the unique coastal soils surrounding the town of Roscoff.
Roscoff onions gained international fame thanks to the "Onion Johnnies"—Breton farmers who, in the 19th and 20th centuries, travelled door-to-door in the UK selling their pink onions. This tradition not only spread awareness but also cemented Roscoff onions as a symbol of regional pride and quality.
