The three main onion colors have different strengths.
Red - best raw. Great diced or sliced as a topping for salad for example, pizza, or maybe chili.
White - holds texture very well. “Clean” taste, not overpowering. Great mixed into pico, salsa, etc. Can also be a good topping for chili.
Yellow - best cooked into food. Has highest sugar content, so amazing for low and slow cooking when you want a sweet (carmelized) taste, or just a nice mellow taste in a stew. Not great to eat raw compared to the others.
You say you don’t like recipes that call for yellow onions… What do you mean?? You don’t like cooked food? Almost every recipe that calls for cooking an onion will call out yellow onions.
Please give examples of recipes that you don’t like that call for yellow onions, I will try to work with you. You seem like you are open to new things.
At the end of the day you might just not like yellow onions. But it might be a texture thing (they can get mushy) or you’re accidentally putting them on stuff raw when a red/white is more appropriate.
