Answer 2

1 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup hot sauce
1/4 cup Essence, recipe follows
2 large yellow onions, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch thick rings
2 cups all-purpose flour
Peanut or vegetable oil, for frying

In a bowl, combine the buttermilk with the hot sauce and 2 teaspoons of Essence. Add the onion rings and press to coat. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
In a medium pot, heat the oil to 360 degrees F.

In a shallow bowl or large dish, combine the flour with 2 tablespoons of the Essence. Dredge the onions in the seasoned flour, coating each ring evenly. Shake off any excess flour and carefully place the rings in the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, turning to cook evenly and prevent sticking, about 3 minutes per batch. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels. Season the fried onion rings with Essence, and repeat with the remaining ingredients.
Serve hot.

Essence (Emeril's Creole Seasoning):
2 1/2 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon dried leaf oregano
1 tablespoon dried thyme
Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

Answer 3

Yummm. Try this recipe:

Beer Batter

Ingredients
1 12 oz can light Beer
1 1/2 cups Flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Paprika
1 cup Flour

Directions
Slice and separate onion. Spread rings on a platter and lightly salt. Let sit for about 15 minutes, until they are slightly moist. Pour the beer into a large bowl. Sift the flour, salt, and paprika into the beer, whisking until the batter is light and frothy. (The batter may be used immediately or stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, but be sure to whisk it occasionally). Heat at least 2 inches of oil in a frying kettle or electric fryer. Dredge onions in plain flour, then in beer batter. Cook onion rings at 375 for about 2 minutes on each side, until golden brown.

This is a good recipe. Just don't forget to flour the onions first before battering them... it helps the batter stick!

Answer 4

Most Grocery stores carry a package called onion ring batter. Look in the produce section. Cut the onion thick and follow the directions on the package.

Answer 5

Get huge soft-ball size yellow or white onions. Cut in 4 huge slices. Soak them in evaporated milk. Dip the soaked rings in either seasoned self rising flour OR self rising cornmeal. Fry them up in oil that has been heating on medium to medium high. I like using peanut oil.

You can make a nice semi-spicy dipping sauce by combining 2 parts mayo to 1 part sour cream. Add salt, pepper, hot sauce, garlic powder and chili powder. All of the above seasonings can be adjusted to suit your taste as long as you start with the 2 to 1 ratio of mayo and sour cream. Enjoy!
