Soaking Red Onions | Tip | Recipe RenovatorI learned this tip while testing recipes from Michael Natkin’s Herbivoracious cookbook. I always thought that raw red onions were too strong to use in salads or on sandwiches until I tried this. You can use this with any type of onion.

Just cut the onion, then soak in cold ice water for 10-15 minutes.

Drain and pat dry, then use in your recipe as directed.
