onion revolution.

i love red onions!
sometimes people call them purple onions!
it's crazy!

i always thought red onions sucked. big time. in fact, i thought they tasted like gasoline! when have i ever tasted gasoline, you ask? never. but for some reason, my brain made that comparison. little did i know that all it takes is some red wine vinegar and these little gasoline onions turn into something i love. <3
i use red onions all the time. they have become famous in my cucumber & onion salad, and now i've started adding them to all my raw salads!
my secret: i chop them in long stringy slices and soak them in red wine vinegar. the vinegar bath cuts the horrid overwhelming onion taste and makes them ripe for the eating!
yum!

i know i've sparked your interest, now go in the kitchen and try it.
