I saw somewhere there exists a saying along the lines of 'start sauteing onion, add some garlic, then you figure out what you are going to cook.' When my wife and I have time to actually cook, this is basically what we do. everything is better with garlic and onions, from German to Korean. The rest is just details.
Apparently it's a Ukrainian saying
Having an Asian extended family, I think it's universal.
Absolutely universal because garlic and onion are amazing for any tongue.
And people who dislike garlic or onions are always super sus, because no the fuck you don’t. You just think you don’t like it.
I knew someone who said she was “allergic to onions if she could see them”… that is not how allergies work dumbfuck, you are just a super basic bitch with no taste.
I knew a guy who said he was allergic to diced or sliced tomatoes. Happily ate ketchup and red pasta sauce.
Best way to stop a small argument? Saute onions in olive oil then add some garlic. Guarantee a head will poke around a door frame and all arguments melt away.

We start our caramelized onions in a covered nonstick skillet over high heat with ¾ of cup water. The water and steam help the onions quickly soften. Then we remove the lid, lower the heat to medium-high, and press the softened onions into the bottom and sides of the skillet to allow for maximum contact with the hot pan. Instead of finishing with sugar or honey as many recipes call for, we add baking soda, which speeds up the reaction that converts flavorless inulin (a polysaccharide present in onions) to fructose.
My face smells like onions for 3 days straight after cooking something with onions for more than 20 minutes. It should be much more terrible to have just onions in the pan
That's a non-starter then. Nothing is worth a 3 day onion facial.
I'm sorry you feel that way.
What I wouldn't give for one of those!

I have a 3 year old nephew and if you gave him a caramel onion like that I think he'd either eat it happily or ask for a plain onion instead. That kid loves himself some onions.
no I don't think you have to fuck them
Gonna hand out caramel onions for Halloween now.
Caramel roulette. 5 apples and an onion on the same plate.
You can caramelize onions in five minutes, but the onions won't be very satisfied afterwards
