The Blooming Onion is a popular appetizer served at chain restaurants, including Outback Steakhouse. It consists of an onion cut to open, looking similar to a flower, then breaded and fried.
Method Tips
1. After cutting the onion, place in cold water; this makes it open prior to frying.
2. Vidalia onions are sometimes hard to find or can be costly; substitute with Oso Sweets, Walla Walla or Maui onions.
3. Use self-rising flour instead of all purpose flour for a lighter, crispier crust.
4. Onions may be cut up to four hours before needed.
5. Special-made gadgets are available to cut the onion perfectly into the "blooming" shape.
