Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Medium mixing bowl
  • Cast Iron Skillet
  • Wire cooling rack
  • Tongs
  • Chef's knife.
  • Paper towels

Ingredients
  

  • 2 large SWEET ONIONS
  • 2 cups ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
  • 1 cup BUTTERMILK
  • 2 large EGGS
  • 1 tsp BAKING POWDER
  • 1 tsp SALT
  • 1/4 tsp CAYENNE PEPPER
  • 1 quart VEGETABLE OIL

Instructions
 

  • Peel the large sweet onions very carefully. Slice them into half-inch thick rounds now. Separate the rings from each other gently.
  • Whisk the flour and baking powder together. Add the salt and cayenne pepper now. Mix them well in a medium bowl.
  • Combine the buttermilk and eggs in another bowl. Whisk them until the mixture is very smooth. This is your wet dipping station.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in your skillet. Use medium-high heat for the best results. The oil should be very hot before frying.
  • Dip each onion ring into the dry flour. Shake off any extra flour very lightly. Then dip the ring into the buttermilk.
  • Drop the ring back into the flour again. Coat it fully for a double-crunch layer. Place the ring into the hot oil carefully.
  • Fry the rings until they turn golden brown. Flip them once using your metal tongs. This takes about three minutes per side.
  • Remove the rings from the hot oil. Place them on the wire cooling rack. Sprinkle a little extra salt while they are hot.

Notes

  • Keep your oil temperature at 350 degrees.
  • Do not crowd the pan while frying rings.
  • Use cold buttermilk for a crispier batter coating.
  • Slice the onions into very even thick rings.
  • Drain rings on a rack, not on paper.
  • Double dip the onions for extra thick crunch.
  • Serve the onion rings while they are hot.
