Chef Mei Lin of Nightshade in Los Angeles makes a blooming tom yum-ion so good that people demand it. Chef Mei’s recipe, which pays homage to the Outback Steakhouse Bloomin’ Onion, is made with a sweet Vidalia onion that's soaked in buttermilk, hand-dredged in a mix of flour and cornstarch, deep-fried, and dusted with tom yum spices. Finally, Mei makes an aerated coconut-lime ranch dip to complete this crowd-pleasing appetizer.

she is very generous to share her recipes to the internet. Not a lot of restaurant would share their signature dish recipes openly to public. I'm really getting the homecook feels from her when she describe the dish, lots of trial and error as she cook at home probing for the correct ratio of things. Here's for you Chef Mei Lin, i'm gonna honor your generosity by trying to cook it!

I worked at Outback Steakhouse in Fort Worth in early 2018, and I can tell you there is a lot more flavor put into this dish than how Outback does their Bloomin Onions. This looks freaking delicious. The one thing I didn't like about the onions was the sauce. It had absolutely no flavor. It was like an orange-tinted mayonnaise. This looks sooo much better!

Worked at a Texas road house and they call this a cactus blossom easily made a hundred of these in a shift. They sat In an ice bath until an order came in. From the water to the butter milk to the flour mix into oil. You had 15-20 seconds to make one to keep the line manager happy. Those flickers had their own section of the fryer. It always had at least 5 floating in oil till the night slowed down

@captainsubtext7446 4 года назад

it is actually pretty common in professional kitchens to use these syphons. i used them in every kitchen i worked and i even have one at home. fun thing: put fruit in it and carbonate it with co2/soda instead of n2o.

@cozyvamp 4 года назад

@@captainsubtext7446 I remember seeing these in old movies from the 50s where the very sophisticated hosts used them for soda. Then came the cooking shows of the 60s where the chefs used them for cream. Is it any wonder that I HAD TO HAVE them in my kitchen. But I still would never have thought to use them for something like a tartar sauce. Love it!

Yeah, it's both good and bad. Fried onions, clams, cheese sticks, are great fatty appetizers. But, the most sinister of these "snacks" are the deep fried snickers bars, etc. you typically find at state fairs. When I saw they had begun finding a way to just deep fry an entire stick of butter, I knew a line had been crossed.
