This genius technique from Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich couldn’t be simpler or more striking, grilling whole red onions and dressing it up with sage, honey, and walnuts. The resulting onion petals are beautifully ombre purple with charring on the edges and serve as the only utensil you need. You can take this idea and run with it to scoop up other delicious things like baba ghanoush or blue cheese dip! GET THE RECIPE ►► f52.co/3bdio3r
PREP TIME: 5 minutes
COOK TIME: 30 minutes
SERVES: 6-8 as a starter or side salad
INGREDIENTS
For the salad:
4 large red onions, skin on
Olive oil, for brushing
Flaky sea salt, to finish
For the dressing:
80 grams (2¾ oz) walnuts (about 2/3 cup)
10 sage leaves, rolled up and cut into really thin strips
1 tablespoon honey
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons boiling water
1 teaspoon mild chile flakes
1/2 teaspoon salt
a little freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil
a few sprigs of mint, leaves picked (about 15 g/ ½ oz)
Recipe adapted very slightly from Chasing Smoke: Cooking over Fire Around the Levant (Pavillion, May 2021).

The most unusual thing I’ve ever grilled was a Mexican vegetable called chayote. It is mind blowing with a little oil, seasoning and lime juice. I love red onions and will absolutely make this amazing looking dish. It would make a lovely appetizer or addition to the top of a leafy salad. Thank you. I love when you post. Congratulations on your new home! Enjoy.

Yum! Anything red onion has my name on it. I’ll give this a try. I love grilled flavors so I’m sure this will be a winner .

I always take advantage of a hot grill and roast chili peppers for salsas and Mexican dishes, which I make frequently. No matter what else I'm grilling, I throw on big chunks of onions with the skin left on, bell peppers, garlic bulbs wrapped in foil, firm plum tomatoes cut side down. I do corn on the cob directly on the grate because I love thar char. I don't like wasting the grill after the main meal is cooked, so I look in my veggie bin and use up whatever will work for grilling. I use charcoal only, and have a chimney like yours. I love how fast it gets the grill ready to cook on. You should show folks how that works. It's so much better than using lighter fluid! And oh yeah, congratulations on your new home.

THIS is delightful! Heard about it on the podcast, chased down the links, and once I actually saw it I had to have it! Glad I watched the vid to know that it really really needs to be charred (burnt). Again, delightful. Thanks!

I love onions raw, pickled and cooked! This summer I had a taste for something jerked on the grill. I had so many eggplants growing in my garden I decided to marinate them in the jerk seasoning and grill them. They turned out delicious and beautiful too. For sides, I was supposed to make a spicy peach slaw but instead roasted some corn and grilled the peaches. I'm looking forward to seeing your new kitchen!!💗

Beets, just scrubbed clean(ish), skin on. Char them until tender, visually they will look ruined. Cool down a bit (or even overnight) to ease in peeling, then season them as you like.

Yum, love beets. I save pickle juices because they can be used in so many ways. Beets ... dump them in leftover bread and butter pickle brine and let sit overnight. So good.

I grill everything I can think of. If I am smoking I always put some salt in a small pan to make smoked salt.

I learned about grilling slices of watermelon a few summers ago and it’s so good. I just do olive oil and salt for mine, but others add pepper as well. And we found grilling them in the same spot after things like the brawts or pork chops to make them even tastier. 😊

I would hold the chopped mint off until the end, after I had spread the walnut dressing on the onions. Then, sprinkle the mint on top of every thing for looks and the mint aroma that would exude as you serve the salad.

How inventive! Also love hearing the cultural background and heartwarming memories this dish invokes. Isn't that one of the best results of cooking? Charred and/or grilled alliums are a great flavor addition to many meals. Reminds me of grilled Calçots with romesco sauce. BTW: Been liking Kristen's hair dos and trying them with my own long hair. How does she get such a nice bun? :)

My favorite odd thing to grill came from Cooking Light around 25 years ago: marinate whole raw (not huge) okra in spicy V8 juice and grill. It's always fabulous! If the okra are too big they are tough and stringy. Grilled okra is not slimy!

What is the brand of the grill. Just the right size for the 2 of us

@JesseCohen 2 жыл бұрын

It's likely the PK360 or a variant of it. Gorgeous, well designed for what it does, but pricey.

Lol at heatsafe with the measuring cup handle. Not even close. (I'm a living example..ouch)

@charleswaters455 2 жыл бұрын

What brand of grill is that? It looks like it's made of cast aluminum or something. It's cast, not from rolled steel. It looks like it will last forever.
