I avoided onions and peppers when I was younger because I was a picky ass eater.
Now I avoid onions because I realized I can’t properly digest them and the make my tummy sad.

Caramelized onions are soooo tasty!

Don’t get me wrong, I love onions as an adult. That said, I had a procedure a few years that fucked my ability to digest allium.
I’m trying to eat fist fulls of probiotics to see if I can get back in the game.
Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 17 hours ago
You can keep heating them slowly and caramelizing them until they turn in a jam …. that’s how good onions are.
Or you could dehydrate them and use the crusty bits like bacon bits on all sorts of food.
I always find it strange to hear people say they don’t like onions … I keep a large stock of onions in my kitchen all the time because they go into just about every recipe and you can cook, fry, bake or use them raw in all sorts of things.

FinjaminPoach@lemmy.world 18 hours ago
Onions and peppers are some of the vegetables I eat the most of because you can cut them up very quickly and serve with simple lunches like pasta or an omelette
Ininewcrow@piefed.ca 17 hours ago
And to lessen the taste of onions … either cut them very thinly … or take the cut slices and soak them in a bit of vinegar for ten minutes.
Best way to enjoy raw onions I find is to eat them with cheese … nothing like a plain old cheese and onion sandwich .. we discovered this in southern Spain where mountain villages serve it like that - really strong manchego hard cheese with strong Spanish onions served on hard crust baguette style bread, it’s amazing
TheOneAndOnly@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
That sounds amazing, and I can’t wait to try it… But I can’t help but wonder how horrible everyone’s breath might be there. 😬
AA5B@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
Interesting, I’ll have to try that.
For a while our standard appetizer to bring places was onions and Brie on saltines. It just works and is simple.
But from that I assumed onions want a creamy cheese like brie, so hard cheeses never occurred to me

Chopped up over a kg of onions and fried them, also added grated parsnip and carrots, then salt, pepper and a few bottles of malt vinegar. Little bit of honey too. Simmer away for a few hours, add more vinegar if it’s getting a little dry. Then store in jars.
This was 2 days ago and my kitchen still smells divine. I don’t really know how to accurately describe it. Caramelised onions but there is more to it from the vinegar. Doesn’t smell like vinegar though, more like it’s enhanced the onions.
Cheap to make as supermarkets here are competing over selling the cheapest veg. 5kg of parsnips, carrots, cabbage and swede for under £0.50, onion was a bit more, but not much. Was going to add all of it but my arm was getting tired from grating and peeling so much. I don’t own a food processor so it’s all by hand. Filled 2.5L worth of jars from the first batch.

The person I’m thinking of just eats like a child. Turns his nose up at any vegetable. The last time he was at my place, he collapsed and shit himself. Looked like diabetic shock. I tried getting the rest of the friend group to have an intervention, but the rest are conflict adverse and don’t eat healthy either, so it didn’t go anywhere. The house he lives in has had three people die of weight related issues, but they think BMI is a scam.

i struggle with lactose and oligosaccharides
yes, i can take an enzyme pill for both
no, it’s not a perfect solution (not in my case at least)at this point I’m just straight up with people and say “I will burp and fart if I eat this, so it’s your culinary pride or your nose, choose wisely”
me being gassier than the sun is practically a holiday tradition when i visit family. nothing has more milk and onions than Pennsylvania white people cooking lol

Onions and Bell peppers ruin the mouth feel of any food they are part of and make my neurodivergent ass make the face in this picture.
AA5B@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
Not to argue but out of curiosity, what about differently cooked onions? When I was a kid I couldn’t stand onions in pasta sauce. But I eventually realized it was the texture of overcooked onions in a place they usually weren’t. Now I love onions but since I cook I make sure they have a nice crunch and the flavor is not too overwhelmed with less interesting stuff

Grass@sh.itjust.works 8 hours ago
I eat white onions only if they are fully caramelized and dissolved into something, and red onions only raw. Peppers have to be spicy or I can’t eat them. That’s the weird one, I have no problem with the taste or anything but I just can’t swallow them its like my throat is trying to squish a rock or something. If it’s blended into something like hummus its fine though.

Do they still feel slimy if they’re finely diced? I love the taste but hate the texture of mushrooms, and mincing them to incorporate into a dish is the best of both worlds for me.

Congratulations, I think you might have a truly original experience. Never seen a kid that doesn’t like onions in any way, so they don’t need to be forced to eat them. And why would you force that in the first place? They aren’t the kind of vegetable that you need to eat, they’re there for flavor. I’m certain there’s some deeper issue here, you might want to figure that out.
AlexanderTheDead@lemmy.world 11 hours ago
You must not know a lot of kids or have a lot of world experience. Onion is a top picky eater food. Why do parents force kids to eat them? Perception of table etiquette.
Pretty easy thing to explain, if you are over the age of 15.

Someone has never taken a big ole bite out of a vidalia onion! Like eating a spicy apple.
