TOBACCO ONIONS
Recipe By: Mansion on Turtle Creek - Texas Monthly
Tobacco Onions
5 cups peanut oil (or other light oil)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 large yellow or sweet onions, peeled, thinly sliced,
and separated into rings
Heat oil to 350 degrees in deep saucepan over medium heat. In medium bowl
combine and mix dry ingredients, then add onions and toss to coat. Remove
onion rings, shaking off excess flour mixture. Fry a few rings at a time
for 10 minutes, until crisp and golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Tobacco onions are easy to prepare and can also be used as a side dish or
an accompaniment to hamburgers.

Instead of the water, try adding a little ketchup and simmer for a bit.

____NYC__ Experience is what we call our mistakes.
Years ago I had a girlfriend who lived in an apartment in the
mid-Fifties on the west side, above a hot dog wagon nest. At about 6 AM
on a warm summery morning, waftaromas of unmistakably fermenting onions
would begin to drift up from the garage. On investigation, I discovered
that they "secret ingredient" in that famous sauce was, indeed, rotting
onions!
I for one have scrupulously avoided hot dog vendors and other street
food sellers, in the advice of my late Uncle Joe, who was the chief
health inspeector for the Bronx in the 50's. His reason was
simple-where do they wash their hands? Unless I see the food come out
of the unmistakably hot fat (like felafel) I just say no.
