Easy Recipe: Giant Baked Sweet Onion For Two.
The largest Sweet Onions in town can be found at Tanaka Farms. Continuing our report about our recent visit to Tanaka Farms — In addition to the Strawberries, we took home a giant Sweet Onion to make one of our favorite side dishes, Baked (or BBQ’d) Onions.
Tanaka Farms grows their Onions amongst the Strawberries. They say it helps to keep certain pests away from the Strawberries and it sweetens the Onions.
Baked Onions aka Onion Candy is a much loved side we often enjoy with Filet Mignon and loaded Baked Potatoes. We’ve previously posted the recipe here.
Without visiting the above recipe link, know here that it’s an Onion that’s tented in foil with Bacon Grease, Salt and Pepper — And then it’s baked in the oven or on a BBQ for about an hour. This extra large Onion took longer (a little under 2 hours) and indeed it was incredibly sweet to eat. It served two very well.
Baked Onions are so easy to make. The rule is generally (1) Onion per guest — If getting them from Tanaka Farms, they can be shared.
If this doesn’t sound good to you, it’s understandable — We once appalled at the idea too, but they’re sooooo good. You might be missing out.
