a stronger onion?

[Fayd]

I'm looking for an onion with a very sharp, almost spicy flavor. i've tried red onions, and they arent what i'm looking for.

are white onions stronger/spicier? i know yellow onions are more meant for cooking, that's not what i'm looking for.

this is gonna be in a salad.

Yellow tend to be more sweet than white. White have bolder flavor, IMO. They also make me cry more when I slice them.

Green onions (fine chop) or young white is what you are looking for. How you chop them will change the intensity.

You're looking for a firm white onion IMHO. One that waters your eyes if you get it near you.

That's weird, I like red onions in salads.

i do too, but i'm looking for something with slightly more punch than a red onion provides.

thanks for the help. i'll grab a white onion and a bundle of spring onions next time i'm at the store and experiment.

LOL! I turned it off after he said "And look! You're gonna love my nuts!"

No sir, I don't like it.

btw, this is going in taco salad.

can i use ground beef taco seasoning as a means of seasoning grilled chicken? (i dont see why it wouldnt work...and grilled chicken is so flavorless otherwise.)

also gonna try out a cilantro pepita dressing that claims to be a ripoff of the one from el torito's. (their thing in the plastic bottle is NOT the same.)

you have to go to Burger King and get some Angry Onions.

but seriously; the small cooking onions (yellow) are the strongest onions I know of.

 

[d33pt]

how about some shallots?

 

[GagHalfrunt]

White onions are stronger than red or yellow, but a big variable is where the onions are grown. Yellows from one area can be stronger than whites from a different area. Ask your produce guy to point out the strongest stuff he's got, he'll know.

Guys, you're going to LOVE my nuts.

skip the onion go for chili peppers

umm...

since i'm making a cilantro pepita dressing, it requires an anaheim chili already...

and a salad wouldnt be a salad without onions. if you dont know that an onion gives a different flavor, and a different spice than a chili, then you're beyond hope.

Just so you know I like onion sammiches. Bread, mayonnaise, salt/pepper, nice white onion.

what? no Vidalia onions?

 

[Googer]

Try Spanish onions. Even better would be to grow your own Spanish onions in soil with high levels of sulfur which is what gives an onion it's bite. Sweet onions are produced in soil lacking sulfur.
