Onions. They’re delicious and versatile and make most savoury dish better.
They still make me cry though, and I must have tried probably 20+ different methods to help with it at this point. None work for me.
I lived with someone who refused to eat anything that she knew had onion in (if she didn’t know, she was fine, like burger patties), it was very difficult to cook in that household
I was like that until pretty late in my teens. I found cooked onions kinda gross and off-putting. When I think about it now I feel bad for my mom who used to cook for me.
Raw onions however?
They were okay, I think it was the texture of cooked ones I didn’t like.
onion is an extremly strong contenter … like all the forms , its cool with everybody … you cry when you cut it , its smells proclaims a good meal coming…
Amen. Got some lotus leaf buns and I’m low on food, so probably just frying up some onions and stalk mushrooms in oyster sauce and calling it a day.
I put cut onions under running water immediately and flex them apart so it gets all of the tear gas out.
I accept I’m an onion crybaby and weep.
I find going outside for a little bit when it gets bad helps
You can keep them in the fridge too to stop the tear gas.
I went to Ethiopia and found they eat onions a lot. You grind them to a pulp (e.g. In a good processor, so no crying) and fry the pull with seasonings and tomato paste. Best sauce ever.
fantastic, we accidentally bought two giant bags of onions at my house so now I know what to do with them!
There’s a dish called Shirowot. There might be others. But this is delicious. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=rh3Om9-o9tI
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
score the onion horizontally and vertically like a grid without hitting the root, then slice the face to create a good dice and then quickly discard the root without getting the juice on your hand, then quickly clean your knife. that’s the solution.
Very unconvential, but what I do… I have diving goggles that cover the nose and I just put them on when I cut onions. No more tears, but you look ridiculous for a while :D
it’s onions
No dish is complete without some onion
Potato. No veggie can do everything, but a tater can do a whole lot more than most. Would miss onions tho
I was thinking the same. Potato’s are not the best at anything but they are great at many things. So versatile and delicious.
Properly prepared mashed potatoes beat any bougie gourmet carbs any day
Absolutely. On the other hand, mashed rice gives you mochi. Are there any potato sweets?
Not any that I’m aware of, but sweets are pretty low on my list of priorities. If I want something sweet, I’ll just get peas or carrots. Potato is still the goat
Brassica oleracea cultivars because basically everyone took this same family and bred it to emphasize different parts of the plant
Broccoli, kale, brussel sprouts, etc
I refuse to believe this. Botanists are just fucking with us.
You’re cheating and you know it
Broccol
nah, shit’s good if you saute it (or do almost anything else with it, but if you steam it, be careful to keep any excess water because that’s now where almost all of your vitamins are)
The vegetable reading this right now
soy bean
For real, edamame is so fucking good. Oh, you want lima beans that taste like sweet peas? Here you go
cheney in a coma?
Cabnage :)
no.
:(
not since “the Kimichi Incident” … sorry… i nearly died… (Dont drink all the soup /water from a Kimichi bowl …!.)
Sorry to hear that. I hope you and cabbage can make peace in the future
we had a great time ,but i overdosed… we had a chinese job open in my city and they sold those big kimchi packages…
mmmm kimchi
Not a single vote for the chili pepper, do better.
why ?
Unique sensation, can vary widely in taste depending on cultivar and slots neatly into almost any cuisine.
