If you don’t like onions you should try cooking them in butter on low heat for 30-45 minutes until they’re a deep amber and mixing them with sour cream, a bit of mayo, salt and pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Boom, caramelized onion dip.
Yeah. Raw onions are just about the only food ingredient I absolutely can’t stand to eat. But I love sauteed onions. I work at a fire house and do a lot of the cooking on shift. If anyone bitches about a lack of onions, I tell them I’ll add onions at the same time I add Habaneros. I love crazy hot stuff, but contrary to popular firefighter belief, most of the guys are huge weenies when it comes to spicy.
Same actually. But I later discovered the reason why I don’t like raw onions is because I have an allergy that gives me migraines when I eat them. Cooking them is fine and delicious though.
But yeah, used to be teased incessantly by family for being “Picky.”
True. I’m a doofus. I meant I have a hard time finding it because my mobile browser interface simplifies the site. Oh well, time to actually put pants on to solve this problem.
I’m saying that the word list is probably specified by the instance admins in the settings of the instance server, and isn’t accessible to users. Lemmy.ml is known to be rather opinionated. However, I’m not familiar with the settings of a Lemmy server firsthand, so can’t say for sure.
I used to be that way. I think you’ll eventually find that you like them. Not enough to take a bite out of a raw onion but being cool with them on a burger at least. Sometimes stuff like this just clicks for me as I get older. No idea why lol.
You probably know this since you work in a kitchen, but a buddy recently taught me that the trick for taking the edge off raw onion—e.g. to put on a salad or burger—is to soak the slices in cold water for a few minutes. Keeps the sweetness and flavor, but seriously reduces the sulfuric burn!
You haven’t lived until you’ve tried some fries with special sauce (mayonnaise, spiced ketchup and raw onion). Diabetes and heart disease included for free.
A bit of hot sauce or balsamic vinegar is way better. And healthier.
(And lol at every fucker out there who thinks they invented some magical special sauce by mixing mayo and ketchup together. Like nobody’s ever thought of that white trash culinary masterpiece before.)
Try putting those red onion in water and vinegar (with a pinch of salt and sugar). They’ll become a deep red/purple and loose all acidity, gaining a sweet and vinegary taste. You can keep them in there for quite a long time too if done correctly

No. Nope. Thank you.
Oh my God way to make them 5x worse
This is genuinely good culinary advice. Thank you for sharing. I may try it soon.
That said, you bastard! You took all the delicious mustard gas tingle out of the onion! Poor ex-delicious onions.

Why do I keep seeing removed instead of some words? If anyone removed about a pack of onions?
Your instance (lemmy.ml) has a word filter - words in the filter get turned into removed.
Ha ha ha removed!
Anyone know where the banned word list is? I am having trouble finding it on my phone.
Most probably server-side, since any of a variety of clients can be used to connect to the instance.

It’s like the Dark Ages.

Thx. Did not know that.
Here’s the comment. Not sure what words would have been filtered
Oh, rereading, the b word
Thanks. Bloody contextless word filtering. Sigh.

Odds aren’t that high at this point. I’m not all wrinkly, but I’m old enough to remember the before times, when the Internet didn’t exist.
No, that’s not how that works. Your own personal experience is fine and valid, but try not to make the assumption it’s true for anyone else.
They grow some onions that taste good raw (you can eat em like apples) but they are expensive

Nope. Had no idea.
I’m a firefighter. So I only sort of work in a kitchen. Whenever I’m the one making dinner for us all.
Lmao I’m sorry, the caffeine was hitting and my reading comprehension failed me — I saw “fire house” and interpreted that as the sub shop.
Thank you for your very important public service and for keeping your crew fed!
Lol that I’d tell people at fire house subs to fuck off if they asked for onions. Man, that’d be great!
In my mind, you’re the one in charge of doing the “cooking” tasks at a fast food place, you’re probably well within your right lmao
Yeah, anyone eating cold red onions can suck a dick. But I’ll suck a dick for a good onion dip.
You never had raw onions on a sangwich? Red onion especially, very tasty raw.
Lil ogre
No thanks. Cooked only.
Grow the hell up.
I have. I prefer not to put things in my body that it rejects. Cooked is fine, raw is not.
You gonna put fermented Greenland shark in your food just because I was able to eat it?
It’s a joke based on op image.
Ahh, I forgot. I’m too distraught over the eclipse being overcast in Reykjavík to think straight.
That sucks, hugggsss
I have eaten the shark, yes. It definitely smelled worse than it tasted.
Only if you do surströmming at the same time
Pass, lol

Mayo and balsamic instead of mayo and ketchup. Or if you’re doing artichokes, both
Or just leave the gross mayo out of it entirely.
I’ll pass.
That sounds like thousand island dressing
I’d be sucking dick more if it tasted like raw onion.
You know I’m sure someone out there… Just gotta find the needle on the haystack lol
Just biting into a raw onion by itself is psychopath behavior but you gotta have raw onions on a proper Italian sub.
Screw red onions. White onions rule.
Where my shallot gang?
Leek fans rise up!

Huh, we just call that onion dip here
