A Bloomin Onion Recipe
Yield: 6 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
Water, ice
Water, boiling
4: Eggs, beaten
2 tbsp: Flour,
1 cup: Cracker crumbs,
Directions:
Select a well-rounded onion. Peel outer skin off. Leave root intact
and cut off any hanging roots. Using a small, sharp knife, divide
onion into four sections by making 2 cuts crosswise, beginning at the
top and cutting toward root, stopping about 1/2" away. Cut each
section twice. Place onion in bowl of enough boiling water to cover
it and leave for 5 minutes. The sections, or petals, will begin to
open. Remove onion from water and immerse into ice water, which will
further the opening. Drain well by turning upside down on paper
towel. Put flour into paper bag, add onion and shake gently to coat
with flour. Roll floured onion in beaten egg to cover. Put cracker
crumbs or coating in bag, add onion, and shake gently to coat.
Refrigerate 1 hour before deep frying in oil to golden brown, 3 to 5
minutes. Cooked onion can be kept for a time in warm oven. This
recipe was posted some weeks ago. It did not include a sauce. If I
remember correctly, the poster said to serve with Ranch Dressing for
a sauce. I would just let my imagination go, on the sauce! I havent
tried this yet, even though it is tempting...I have to watch out for
my husbands diet, so we try to stay away from fried things. Sorry, I
dont know the name of the original poster, but that is his/her ID,
after the recipe title. Barb Day
