Sometimes it's garlic, but yeah, mostly onion.

[-] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 24 points 1 month ago

then you throw in some diced carrot and celery for the next level

lmfao this dude thinks they invented mirepoix

[-] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 month ago

mire pox on you too

[-] matelt@feddit.uk 34 points 1 month ago

Unpopular -slash-borderline-psychopatic opinion: there should be onion grilled in butter scented candles on the market.

I would buy it in a heartbeat. I've seen garlic bread candles on Etsy after all!

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Really fuckin' tired of eating all these candles

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

Found the US Marine!

[-] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 2 points 1 month ago

What's the nutritional benefit of candle wax?

I guess this is how I find out I'm a psycho

[-] JDPoZ@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

Garlic, butter, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, onions, shallots, and basil.

Any of these in almost any dish make whatever you're cooking smell amazing.

[-] ptz@dubvee.org 19 points 1 month ago

Literally that.

Growing up, I always loved going to Grandma's house because it always smelled so good because she was always cooking something. Later in life, I realized it was just a faint onion smell because she put them in everything.

Onions are just the most superior vegetable, change my mind.

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 month ago

change my mind.

No.

[-] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Counter point. Onions are vile and make eating out a constant annoyance for me because they're in everything.

[-] rbos@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

If they were rare, they would be unbelievably expensive. We're so lucky they are cheap.

[-] ArfArfWoof@feddit.org 37 points 1 month ago

In a lot of recipes I start with just an onion (or onion with diced garlic), then add stuff later.

[-] BarrelAgedBoredom@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 month ago

Most of the time I'm sauteing an onion before I even know what I'm gonna make

[-] ArfArfWoof@feddit.org 2 points 1 month ago

A true onionhead!

WHY WOULD I LIE ABOUT THIS

[-] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Someone about to eat an onion, probably.

[-] Thedogdrinkscoffee@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

I know right?! Like, eat it raw baby. So sweet, so spicy, so goooooood.

[-] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 3 points 1 month ago

I have an old Irish Canadian friend who said that their mother ate a raw onion every night before she went to bed. At it like an apple as a late night snack. The old woman went on to live to a hundred years of age with a completely sharp and aware mind.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

I personally don't like onions, so it usually olive oil + garlic.

Or bacon, sometimes it's just bacon

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 1 month ago

Found my people.

[-] Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 2 points 1 month ago

or frying your onion in bacon fat

[-] TheRealKuni@piefed.social 1 points 1 month ago

I don’t like raw onions. But if you sauté or grill those tear-jerkers, they’re amazing.

[-] Canopyflyer@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago
[-] 0ops@piefed.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Ok check this: onions and bacon aaand kielbasa

[-] xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 month ago
[-] jacecomix@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

This except I'm standing next to a grill with only charcoal in it.

[-] brown567@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 month ago

Sometimes it's cumin!

[-] RVGamer06@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Are we onionposting now?

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I hate onions, and you'll never catch me in this scenario.

Garlic, on the other hand...

[-] Echolynx@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Thank you! Feels like I'm the only one reading these comments...

[-] Echolynx@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

I dunno, I'm one of the weirdos who hates the smell (and taste) of fried onion. Makes my eyes water and hurt.

[-] kryptonianCodeMonkey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I hate onion. I dont cook it. Can't stand the smell of it. Best case scenario, I use onion powder in something. I still get these comments, so... no.

[-] ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 month ago

Okay, but in oil or butter?
