directions

• Mix all dry ingredients together.
• Onion may be sliced like a blossom by cutting the top 1/4 off, the top has the stem.
• Then peel and be very careful to leave the root intact.
• Carefully slice from the top of the onion down but stop about 1/2" before you get to the root, taking care not to cut through the root.
• Slice the rest of the onion like a pie into many servings.
• When complete, soak onion in cold ice water for 1/2 hr.
• so the onion's petals will start to open up and bloom.
• Drain onion and dip in flour mixture and dust well.
• Dip onion then in buttermilk and back in flour mixture.
• Place in hot oil and fry until golden.
• Oil should cover onion.
• When done drain well and place on plate and cut center out of onion so the petals may easily be removed.
• Dipping Sauce: Mix all together and serve in the middle of the onion blossom.
• Garnish with paprika and just a dash of red pepper.

1. Didn't make this as I could never eat an awesome blossom. However, I work at Chili's and that's not even close to blossom sauce. It contains mayo, NOT sour cream for one.   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal AmberD19 Reply 1
2. Using my own spices, but I do like this version. Thx for the tips, also.   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Graz B. Reply
3. I used a favorite packaged seasoned flour blend for blossoms that we really like and made this dipping sauce recipe to serve with it. I haven't had Chili's dipping sauce so I can't attest to how close this is to their's, but we thought this was a great sauce - and liked it with our other vegtables too. I only added a couple of shakes of red pepper as DH isn't a fan of anything past mild heat. Pretty sure anytime I serve onion blossoms I'll be making this sauce as well. Thank-you for sharing!   icons / ellipsis / ellipsis-horizontal Kate57 Reply
