How do I get a to much onion taste out of my food?

Answer 1

That is a hard one and a very hard fix. Unlike alot of ingredients onion can not be offset with sugar, vinegar, or a base. What you could do it to increase the volume of other ingredients.

You did not say what you are making, but if it is a sauce add more water or vegetable stock. Something with a starch, add more potatoes or noodles. A meat type of gravy or sauce, add a bit of red wine, water, a dash of red wine vinegar, and a pinch of sugar.

Speaking of potatoes, they do have the property of soaking up flavours and salt. You may want to throw one in and see what the result is.

Good luck.

I love the taste of onion, I would personally add a bit more garlic, olive oil, provincial herbs and call the dish Italian.

Answer 2

Add a liberal amount of diced garlic and no one will notice the onion taste. Big name restaurants do it all the time. I can`t prove this but I am pretty sure that is how they do it because my girlfriend`s aunt from her father`s side of the family used to work for a guy that had food brought in from some big name restaurant and I heard her talking about how she thought they reduced the onion taste in their soup before it was delivered to them. Hope this helps.
