I’ve been teasing my wife for years. She hates onions, yet she loves onion rings.

???????????????????????????

“But they’re fried.”

“So they’re cooked. Yet why don’t you eat caramelized onions, or onions cooked in a stew, or....”

“Nope. Just onion rings.”

A good onion ring has had the thin membrane removed and has been soaked in buttermilk.

Maybe that tones down whatever she does not like in them.

I hate raw onions. There has never been a sandwich made which has been improved by adding raw onions to it, as shown by the rings of them left on the plate at restaurants who insist on adding them.

I can accept them as a spice ingredient in recipes like having a quarter cup browned with the meat in a lasagna. But batter the rings and deep fry them and I will gobble down a pile.
