ONION BLOSSOM
1 large Vidalia or other sweet onion
2 tb all-purpose flour
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 c saltine cracker crumbs
vegetable oil
1/2 ts salt (optional)
commercial dark honey-mustard or Ranch-style salad dressing
Peel onion, leaving root end intact. Cut onion vertically into
quarters, cutting to within 1/2 inch of root end. Cut each quarter
into thirds. (If you mess up on the cutting technique, you can chop
that onion for another use and start again with a new one)
Place onion in boiling water 1 minute; remove and place in ice
water 5 minutes. Loosen "petals" if necessary. Drain onion, cut
side down.
Place flour in a zip-top plastic bag; add onion, shaking to coat.
Dip onion in egg.
Place cracker crumbs in plastic bag; add onion, tossing to coat.
Chill 1 hour.
Pour oil to depth of 3 inches into an electric fryer or heavy
saucepan, and heat to 375 degrees.
Fry onion 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown; drain on paper
towels. Sprinkle with salt, if desired. Serve onion with dark
honey-mustard or Ranch-style salad dressing.
