how do I cook without onions?

Question

I don't like onions at all how do I cook without them when everythig has onions.

Answer 1

If you don't like them, just don't add them. It's a matter of personal taste. Your recipe won't fall apart if you leave them out.

Answer 2

You don't have to put them in. Most people do like onions, so if you're cooking for a group, you may want to cook to batches, or set aside some for yourself and add a little onion powder to everyone else's food. If you hate their texture, you can just use onion powder.

You might also want to try shallots. They're a little like onions, but they have a softer, more buttery taste. My cousins hate onions, so when I cook for them, I substitute shallots, and they don't mind at all. Leaving onions out of a dish won't hurt it. Now if you hated garlic, you might be doomed.

Answer 3

My son hates onions, so I have to leave them out of everything. Most things taste ok without them. Many times I will add onion salt or onion powder instead. I also have learned to dice them very, very tiny so that he doesn't notice. But if he even smells them, the gig is up, so I have to be extra sneaky.:)

Answer 4

If your recipe calls for onions and you like the flavor, use onion powder. That's what I use for the relatives that dont like onions.

Answer 5

If stir frying or making soup, instead of using onions to flavour, I use miso. Miso paste - Japanese fermented soybeans - can be found at high end grocery stores, and health food stores.

Answer 6

it's not a problem to leave the onions out,unless you are making onion soup;)

Answer 7

Use onion powder. It's in the spice section.
