I broke out a doorknob bit to hollow out the onion


Now that's a good idea! I had thought about putting the ice cream in a hollowed out onion but did not feel like carving one up with a dull arse spoon or slicing my drunk arse finger with a knife for it to be a janky looking hole in a onion

I also used Onion Jack cheese, but whose checking?

Those burgers do look a lot alike. Since we will probably split the burger vote, I think we can assume that every vote you get would have been a vote for me, and vice versa. We should sum up our vote totals ans split the trophy.

Hear that, Darla?

I'll agree to that if you each bring me one of those tasty looking morsels!

I had to use the spoon for the finishing work, but it gave a good circle all around to carve to.

So many good onion dishes here. All look good, too. The AAOOG (American Association Of Onion Growers) would be proud!

Still waiting for the fried onion loaf. My all time favorite onion dish from Red Hot and Blue (A long gone BBQ chain, started by one of the guys who started Corkey's after they split up)

Would you share the recipe for this

330g AP Flour
6g salt
4g yeast

30g cold butter cubed
170g 90F water

Pulse the dry ingredients in a food processor then add the butter and water and run until you have a coarse mixture. Dump out and lightly knead until it comes together in a ball. Let rise for 2-1/2 hours. Makes 2 balls.

Spicy Caramelized Onion Bucatini

Note the lasagna sheets that were a fail.



Caramelized the onions in butter this time versus oil. Here is about 35 minutes in.



Finished



Didn't want to go to Fresh Market today for the pasta shape I wanted to use so I thought torn lasagna would mimic it. It did not.



Had some bucatini already at home



Caramelized onions, minced some garlic, tomato paste, salt, lots of crushed red pepper.







Add about 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream and season to taste. Add 1 cup pasta water from the bucatini.





Simmer with pasta and enjoy!



I had it with some parm but not really necessary. It's glossier without, if that's your thing.



It’s pretty spicy and very oniony.

Lol. The only thing that would make it more Louisiana is to begin with a roux.



(I see my serial downvoter is on the thread! I love it knowing someone is bothered enough to go downvote all my posts. I hope God will take away your hate.)
