“If you don’t like onions, you need to grow up” says the guy who has a fit at the sight of cream cheese 😂😂😂
My exact thought. I had to go back to make sure I heard him right. Lmao.
Def didn’t settle well with me when he said that lol I have autism and onions are big icks for me.
The
@@Kenzo.o.o SERIOUSLY! Its like super difficult sensory wise! (I get around w dried garlic and garlic paste, no more bad texture but lots of flavor still)
@@Kenzo.o.o don’t worry. He fears tomatoes and cream cheese. He has no grounds to talk lmao.
Not sure if anyone else mentioned, but one of the tricks to making the onion "bloom" is soaking it for a while in ice water upside-down, which helps the onion open up so when you batter/flour it (which you got right by doing twice, a lot of folks skip this essential step). Another trick used by the folks who have been making these for a long time is when they pull it out of the water, they sort of spin it into the air a couple times gently to splay the petals out and shake the water off, which is faster than doing it in individual sections with their fingers. Also, the bloom gets fried upside down (root end up) for most of the cooking time, and then it gets flipped over closer to the end to make sure it's thoroughly cooked on both sides. What's CRAZY is that a talented bloom guy can do this in about 8 or so minutes, from getting the order to serving it up, from ice water (how they're kept on the line) to being slid into the window to be served. It's pretty mesmerizing to watch someone bust these out one after the other with that kind of speed! I must say though, yours is one of the better attempts I have seen on youtube, so many people just utterly fail at coating the petals. Bravo!
me taking notes like im ever gonna make one of these
All of this is absolutely correct! I’ve seen hundreds made. For a home version, cut them upside down (starting near the root helps to make deeper & more even cuts) and into thinner sections.
I believe you can also buy a kitchen gadget that will make the onion a blooming onion
@@jessicaengel3151 Owning something like that should be signal that your life is not going right lol
@@itsmederek1 Owning something like that could also be a signal that your life IS going right. Having enough money to waste on kitchen gadgets, having a kitchen big enough to hold all the stupid gadgets...the kind of money to waste on something you'll probably never use...
That's a sign of success.
This video has layers… like, well, you know
Like An old person in Winter? 🤣🤣🤣
a parfait….
Ogres?
Cake!
Ahhh the epidermis
Didn't Alton use Sherry Vinegar instead of just straight Sherry? That may have contributed to the sweetness.
Yes, sherry vinegar. And yes, I agree.
I just watched the Alton Brown video to be sure. He said any vinegar you prefer, but he uses sherry vinegar.
I can confirm I have made this recipe and use vinegar and it is still extremally sweet. Love Alton but this one was a miss for me
You gotta get yourself some cut proof gloves for kitchen use. I'm pretty sure I've even seen Alton use them while using a mandolin, they're a real nice item to have for "just in case" scenarios.
Absolutely!! I just heard about these. I’m buying a pair!
Basically tiny chainmail gloves. A lot of delis use them.
I was a clumsy mofo so my manager bought a few of these! I was the only one I saw use them but they are awesome
The onion sandwich would've been so much easier to eat if the onion was cut into slices instead of left in rings. Having said that, brb gonna make myself an onio sandwich!
i was thinking the same thing. cut them thinner and maybe even rinse them with cold water to help with the 'bite' of them.
@@Kogobean What if you chopped them after grilling and mixed it with the sauce like an onion salad sandwich?
I would love you try one of India’s most popular onion dish, it’s called pyaaz ka pakoda (onion fritters?). They are a staple in Indian households as a snack/supper during the rainy season, with tea. They are delicious, salty, with a batter full of spices and with a refreshing coriander mint chutney.
I think you will love it.
That sounds amazing!
A few episodes of indian food would be great! I think he did a butter chicken comparison, but there's still plenty of other dishes to try
yup, known in Mumbai as "kanda bhaji" (onion fries) they're really good
I think the restaurant I order them from spells it "pakora". They are super good, and for anyone reading these comments who wants to order them or search for them on google....you can use any of the spellings you see in these comments (pokoda, pakora, pakode, kanda bhaji). They are quite literally one of the most delicious foods you can eat if you enjoy onions.
I love me some onion pakora, or onion bhaji, or whatever you call it. One of my favourite Indian appetizers.
All those onions and not a single tear trail- props to ur editing 👏
If your knife is sharp enough, onions won’t make you cry
@@RyanDudziak or if you use sweet/yellow onions. I get those almost exclusively and never cry
onion dip is usually sweet, but if you try french onion, you may like that more, david. thanks for the vid and happy holidays!
They all look so good 🤤 I will say that the device most restaurants have for bloomin onions make the job much easier. would recommend (while making sure you dont cut too much into the stem) REALLY shaking the onion more after an ice water bath dip, and a ton after the flour steps. As long as you have a good hold on the root and havent cut too far into the central part of the onion itll stay together but bloom better.
Yes, Kevmo recipe finally getting some love! He's such a creative cook and his vids are so chill to watch, absolutely love that guy
Jacques Pepin has posted his wife’s favorite onion sandwich from James Beard recently. That sandwich, however, is cold.
Now those onion rings. Those sound fabulous!
Haven’t even watched all of this yet and I’m on love, I love onion 🧅
Traces of onions recovered from Bronze Age settlements in China suggest that onions were used as far back as 5000 BC. Ancient Egyptians revered the onion bulb, viewing its spherical shape and concentric rings as symbols of eternal life. Onions were actually used in Egyptian burials, as evidenced by onion traces found in the eye sockets of Ramesses IV. And Romans believed that onions had the ability to improve ocular ailments, aid in sleep, and heal everything from oral sores to lumbago
The onion dip doesn’t use sherry cooking wine. It uses sherry vinegar. I saw the ingredients you used and you used sherry cooking wine. Sherry wine is sweet, but Sherry vinegar is acidic. So maybe that’s why. I haven’t tried the recipe but I’ve tried chef John from
Food wishes and his is good!!!
Nice catch, that would really explain the difference.
This is just a love letter to Shrek and his swamp, because I'm sure Shrek is just writing all these recipes down...obligatory Shrek is love, Shrek is life. 😂I love the fact Outback Steakhouse isn't even Australian. It was founded in March 1988 in TAMPA, FLORIDA, and the founders never been to Australia before starting the restaurant. So it's a portrayal of Australia according to Florida Man. That aside, it doesn't change the fact their Bloomin' Onion is so addicting. As unhealthy as it is, it never fails to make us keep crawling back.
Just like how the first Texas Roadhouse is in Indiana 😂
Everyone in the comments of the og video thought that the onion sandwich guy was "crazyyyy" for making that concoction but honestly, if you cook a lot, you would know that it would taste pretty good or at least not terrible. Sweet and savory, and nice texture from the bread. And it wouldnt necessarily leave your breath as smelly as if you were to bite a raw onion since its cooked down and caramelized. Im surprised not many people defended his recipe lol, I'd totally make it(i feel like its a good college student recipe too)
My grandmother made a really good onion sandwich but hers also had pickles and sometimes tomatoes if they were in season.
I might be allergic to onions, but for some reason, I'm mesmerized by watching them cook.
"if you do you need to grow up" says the guys who makes faces when eating most foods that are not butter heavy
one of my favorite hot sandwiches is a grilled cheese (provolone usually) with lots of caramelized onions, and I think the sauce on the onion sandwich in the video would go well in that. would also be less difficult to eat if they were cut smaller :)
Hey David. I’ve fallen sick (moderate fever, nasty sore throat and cough). Thankfully no covid. Your vids cheer me up and have helped me get through this mess.
Thanks TMI. Ever heard of suffer in silence? We all do it.
This reminds me of your first ever blooming onion appetizer vid!!!
i find caramelized onions very sweet too
Duke’s is def a savory mayo! No sugar at all. It’s my fave. Must have been something else adding sweetness.
I used to work there and there is a technique on making these you are missing. These are placed in the fryer upside down and we would spin them clockwise as we put them into the oil. That pushes the onion petals open as it starts to fry and gives you a much better finish product. you let it fry upside down for a few minutes before flipping it and allowing it to cook the rest of the way
Cutthroat Kitchen was one of my fave food network shows. Alton Brown was such a good host and personality for that show!!
Alton also recommended you always use the guard when using your mandolin. There are also cut-resistant gloves now.
Thank you for your regularity in posting ☺️
I absolutely love sautéed onions. Yes I could eat an onion sandwich 😮
I share your fear of the mandolin slicer. I have a nifty heart shaped scar from the chunk of knuckle I took out when trying to slice onions for curry. Haven't used it again since!
happy holidays david 🥺💕
I am so unbelievably curious about the onion sandwich - might have to try sometime!!!
loved this vid, ty ty david💕
watching this has unlocked a lost memory of eating buttered bread with raw onion when i was young, its such an extremely slavic thing lmao, i may wanna try it again now, years later :D
For the rootbeer, its already a thing for people who use sparkling water so the batter fries up to be more "fluffy" or "airy"
The rootbeer does the same but with that added rootbeer flavor.
I would do the onion sandwich with a slice of Gruyère cheese (and probably thinner slices of onion).
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! 🎄🎄 . David
“You need to grow up.” Coming from the one who won’t eat tomatoes. 😂
Onion sandwich sounds like a great thing. I will need to try it next time I get some good quality onions
ok that onion sandwich looks amazing
These all looked great to me. The sweetness of AB's dip could also maybe be mellowed by switching to a regular yellow onion rather than the sweet Vidalia variety. Duke's mayo isn't sweet--it always seemed a bit lemon or vinegar forward to me.
I didn’t try Alton Brown’s onion dip recipe(though I stole the ideal of using Dukes Mayo) but instead did Food Wishes Chef John’s everything onion dip and my coworkers were ranting and raving about how good it was.
As someone who's so nervous around blades that I can barely even _WATCH_ folks use mandolins, there's a cool standing variety with a feed hopper you can get for pretty cheap that does the same job without getting your hands anywhere near the blade. A bit more of a pain to clean, but a pretty fair trade for the peace of mind, I'd say!
As someone with similar experiences involving mandolins and thumbs, I've found one of the best ways to do it is to wear an Ove Glove while you're doing it (you could use the safety guard if you still have it, I lost mine ages ago)
I didn't have anything to eat today. But I saw half a yellow onion in the fridge. Tried the onion sandwich, added cheese just because and damn that's good!
Hai David😊. Just wanted to say, you're an awesome person. I hope you have a wonderful day, and also take the rest you need. Take care🌹
I never saw Dukes in Upstate NY. I heard do much about it and know it's a famous in the South.
Damnnnn I haven’t watched your videos IN A WHILE gonna binge the f out of them now lol
Still one of my favorites UA-camrs David 🫶🏼🫶🏼
For the core of the outback onions you can make use a cookie cutter roughly the size of the container you're using for the sauce if it's too hard to use a knife!
I know you said you don’t want to use a mandolin but, try to use those speciality gloves that are cutting resistance it will be helpful and save your fingers
David my brother, I am so with you on the mandolin. I sliced off the tip of my finger right before going on vacation
I developed a serious allergy to onions in my thirties. I miss them so much! Great video!
I’m not allergic but can’t eat them bc of my IBS. It’s one of the only foods I truly miss 😭
I LOVE horseradish! Like anchovies it can be a great subtle flavor addition that can be be used in various ways & intensities. When my sinuses are wonky my go-to relief is very thinly sliced Boar's Head horseradish chedder. If that doesn't work I move on to crazy spicy curries. The cheese does usually help, the curry not so much (I think I'm just trying to scare the sickness away at that point?) 🤣
Probably a good substitution for you not wanting to use a mandolin would be a food processor with the slicing attachment. Just something we would use in one of my past restaurants.
“Why do we not utilize horseradish more?” AMEN 😂
Cheese is missing on that onion sandwich. Or maybe a fried portobello cap. Or both.
When you stew onions down like for the dip they release a lot of their natural sugars, that might be a lot of the sweetness. In addition to maybe the mayo.
I would also choose onion rings over fries. 😊
6:45 and before Brown there's Foor Wishes, an alpha and omega of cooking channels on YT
Lmao i do the same when I over toast my bread 🤣🤣. Surprised there was no Onion tart tatin.
Oldschoolkevmo is a vibe
im really enjoying this "one ingredient" videos, they're really fun to watch 🥰🤗
I would have loved to have tried those onion rings with the garlic sauce he made for the sandwich.
The blooming onion ring looks so damn gooddddd and I’m so curious about the onion sandwich because if you roast the onions maybe they’ll be good 🤣
I got an ad for outback’s blooming onion right before you started making one
First time watcher, and glad I did. I love onions, and now I think I'm going to love them more. About the mandolin thing, it's supposed to come with a finger guard. If yours didn't, then that is not just a knock off, but a bad one. You need the real deal ones that are weirdly "as seen on TV" or at an Italian owned grocery. While you're there, get a food mill.
The sweetness from the Alton Brown dip was not from Dukes. Found that when I lived in NC; one of the few mayos that does not have any sugar in it.
One thing about scraping the burn off of toast. It may not look burned but it will still have that bitter burned taste.
My God! David finally used real and good mayonnaise! Dukes is king!
where’s your bowl with the blue lid from? 👀 i’ve been looking for something like that!
Your Christmas set-up this year is SUPER cute! They keep getting better every year ☺️
I refuse to use a mandoline as well after a horrible cut. I'm curious as to the onion dip you're used to; I grew up with the the Lipton French Onion Soup mix recipe from the package.
Stuffed Italuan onions are also a thing to behold.
DAVID! Get a mandolin glove! That way you can cut anything and everything without getting hurt!
Imagine dipping the blooming onion in the Alton Brown onion dip. I think you'd reach Onion Nirvana.
You should try out the cut proof mesh kitchen gloves when using the mandolin
Haven’t had the horseradish sauce in a long while; think that would go well with prime rib or should I stick with OG horseradish sauce?
I did not wake up today expecting to get indirectly roasted by a UA-camr for my dislike of onions, but here we are
But my boy cant even look at a package of cream cheese without crying.
A moment of silence for David’s loved ones having to deal with his onion breath
a tip for onion rings: remove the membrane from between the layers so the batter doesn't slide off while you're eating it
Duke’s is definitely a savory mayo, the sweetness comes from the brown sugar as well as the onions themselves. I agree that a super sweet onion dip isn’t the move though, but to each their own and I’m not about to criticize Father Alton lol
Slice the onions and add cheese to that first sandwich and it would sound pretty tasty.
Duke's mayo actually doesn't have sugar in it unlike Miracle Whip's twin brother, Hellman's which you usually use.
Yeah I think it was his use of Sherry in place of Sherry Vinegar as called for in Altons recipe.
Your palate is so off base if you think Hellman's is anywhere as sweet as Miracle Whip. The sugar in Hellman's is negligible flavor wise
can yall just shut up for once
Watching since around the Oreo rice vid, it's crazy to compare how much you improved at cooking
you should get a moving blade mandolin, they're so much safer and nicer than a traditional one
most slicers have a hand guard. failing that there is cut proof gloves. I been bit by those suckers before myself usually I go like 10 percent left and then hand sliced or just use the hand guard.
I'd order the onion sandwich, I won't lie.
I get the root beer. A little sweetness. Extra browning with the sugar. Win-Win.
i was dubious about the root beer onion rings but apparently it is a thing that exists. on the National Onion Association webpage they have a recipe for it.. omitting the alcohol, using root beer and water in the batter.. shrugs
I'm surprised you didn't cry at all during cutting all those onions!
You should’ve tried the baked onions from Townsends.
I rush to his videos every time I get that notification like 🏃🏾♀️ 💨
I agree with you on Altons onion dip. I made it too and throught it was too sweet. Had such potential but it was super sweet and unbalanced
I just made okonomiaki (sp?) pancakes for the first time. It includes 1 1/4 c. onion and the serving size was two portions. Absolutely loved it!
I have a variation of that onion Sando, the french onion soup sandwich. Add 1 or 2 kinds of cheese to make it a grilled cheese and onion sandwich. Before I changed my diet I made it and it was so damn good.
I saw a "root beer" battered onion many many years ago at the Kutztown fair, lots of innovation in food craft there, and one was "birch beer" battered onion rings.
I mean David use the damn holder for the mandolin or go buy one ya goof.
An edit to Alton's recipe would be to omit the brown sugar and dial back the caramelizing to jammy level rather than paste.
Hey David, I would advise you invest in some knife proof gloves for the mandolin. They don't cut through, look and feel like fabric and are relatively cheap. I have mobility issues and have cut, and burned my hands so bad I've been asked if I was a chef multiple times. Never been cut when using them
It makes more sense to me for the onion sandwich to dice the onions just for more surface area for charing and so you don’t end up with onion tentacles lol. But I could eat an onion like an apple so….
New Zealand onion dip
Can evaporated milk;
Packet soup - French onion
Lemon squeeze
I do have a thumb tip at home and I will use it.
"...no issue with any onion and if you do I think you need to grow up" says the cream cheese hater lol...Love the video, great work as usual!
The difference is that cream cheese is gross
I would like to see you try chef johns onion dip
