QUOTE(New Klang @ Nov 17 2020, 02:06 PM) Do you add garlic in your cooking when there is onion? Regarding onion, do you fry in oil or boil in water? How long do you cook your onion and how? Just follow the the procedure la. What outcome you need. You make fried rice all onion no garlic then it will ended tasted like hot laundry soap You want to make vege broth why would you need to fry onion? It only adds undesired oil that clouds your soup. You want your onion caramelize then cook slowly for long time. You want that smoky flavor then cook fast under high heat. If you like that little char then cook slighty longer. Onion is not cake. You cook onion using eyes not rules of book. This post has been edited by failed.hashcheck: Nov 17 2020, 02:20 PM |

I always reach for a yellow onion unless I have some other reason to reach for something else,” says Kim Reddin, the director of public and industry relations for the National Onion Association. “The yellows hold up extremely well over that process of caramelizing because it is a long, slow heat.” Here are more ways to cook with yellow onions. https://www.tasteofhome.com/collection/types-of-onions/ This is western thing. When you live in SEA the default onion is small red onion, or what they call shallots Then 2nd default is big red onion. Yellow onion only when recipe specifically call for bawang holland.

QUOTE(CoffeeDude @ Nov 17 2020, 03:20 PM) Caramelized onions is a western food mah, no?  I can make caramelized onion with big indian red onion just fine. I dont just read food blog and fantasizing about cooking. I cook everyday so I know. Yellow onion is of little significance here. When Indian red onion price were sky high last year everybody panic. It was national issue. When yellow onion naik harga nobody know, nobody cares. This post has been edited by failed.hashcheck: Nov 17 2020, 03:27 PM |

QUOTE(New Klang @ Nov 17 2020, 08:29 PM) What is difference between shallots and onions? One is bawang kecil and the other bawang besar? Do you put salt when you carmalise onions? Somewhat. I usually caramelize using dairy blend which is better bcs it doesn't burn like pure butter. These cheap blend is usually already salted. I don't deliberately put salt bcs I consider caramelized as unfinished cooking ingredients. Adding salt early on will just make it not very flexible for wide range of dish.

QUOTE(New Klang @ Nov 17 2020, 08:24 PM) Regarding cooking soup, do you fry onions first? I normally boil onions in water together with those items that need long time boiling like bones and hard vegetables like stalks, carrots, potatoes. frying develop flavor. You can bypass the frying but it will taste bland, like well, boiled onion. |
