Baked Bloomin' Onion

Baked Bloomin' Onion
There comes a time in your life when you realize that moms aren't perfect. I mean, don't get me wrong, moms are the best (at least mine is), but sometimes they can be downright conniving.I know, it's hard to believe, but it's true. I mean, remember when she used to give you the prized soggy french fries at McDonald's? BUT. There's only one problem. It's not worth it my friends. But even though we may have an aversion to this infamous American art form, we still can't resist that irresistible crunch. To make your blooming onion, you will start with the obvious. I was looking for a big sweet onion like a Vidalia, but I couldn't find one. First slice off the top. Peel off all that skin and then flip him over. That way your onion can stand up easier without rolling over which makes it easier to slice it into wedges. Just make sure you don't slice all the way through. Now drench it in some eggs and stuff. Then it goes in a mixture of corn flake crumbs, Parmesan cheese, and seasonings. Related:  RecetasComfort Food Recipes

Secret Ingredient Stovetop Mac and Cheese You guys, our water was just off for almost two whole days. I repeat: TWO WHOLE DAYS. Almost. The pump in the well was broken or something. It was wretched. I spent most of the time guarding the kitchen, sullenly eying the mountains of dishes which had already accumulated and biting the heads off of anyone who wished to add to the heap. When it came to be about lunch time I could see all the hungry eyes glancing furtively toward the cupboards full of my clean dishes and I knew I had to make a move.I had just been browsing Pinterest (something I... ahem... seldom indulge in...) and had stumbled upon this recipe for cheese sauce and it inspired me with its use of corn starch and evaporated milk. I did dirty one bowl to photograph it in though.

Thank you for listening. But lawsy mercy, ladies and gentlemen. I know they don’t look it, but these teeny tiny, thinly-sliced fried onions are so pleasantly flavorful and crisp, and such an utterly perfect accompaniment for so many different main courses, they really need to be placed on some list of Culinary Triumphs of All Time. No, I’m not pregnant. Making these fried onions is so simple folks, but there are two crucial steps. And besides, I don’t really know the reasons. The Cast of Characters: Onion, Buttermilk, Flour, Salt, Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, and Canola Oil. Begin by peeling a large onion and slicing it very, very thinly. Notice that you can see the knife through the onion slice. Next, separate the onion slices into rings and place them into a shallow dish. Measure 2 cups of buttermilk and pour it over the onions. You can use milk, too, if you don’t have buttermilk handy. Next, add 2 cups flour to a bowl. Criminis? Alone.
