The flavonol quercetin that is found in red onions is not broken down or lost during cooking; it just gets transferred to the liquid part of the dish. However, to ensure maximum benefits from the flavanol, opt for lower-heat cooking methods. According to one study, when baking or sauteing, the quercetin
(http://www.guidechem.com/cas-117/117-39-5.html) level of onions actually increases by up to 25% (this might be due just to the loss of water). However, when boiling onions, the concentration of quercetin goes down by 18%.
