Onion Ring Batter Recipes

ONION RING BATTER

Steps:

• Blend all ingredients well.

OLD FASHIONED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
• Separate the onion slices into rings, and set aside. In a small bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
• Dip the onion slices into the flour mixture until they are all coated; set aside. Whisk the egg and milk into the flour mixture using a fork. Dip the floured rings into the batter to coat, then place on a wire rack to drain until the batter stops dripping. The wire rack may be placed over a sheet of aluminum foil for easier clean up. Spread the bread crumbs out on a plate or shallow dish. Place rings one at a time into the crumbs, and scoop the crumbs up over the ring to coat. Give it a hard tap as you remove it from the crumbs. The coating should cling very well. Repeat with remaining rings.
• Deep fry the rings a few at a time for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove to paper towels to drain. Season with seasoning salt, and serve.

SWEET SAVORY ONION RING BATTER RECIPE

Steps:

• Prep a place to drain cooked onion rings near cooking station.
• Clip deep fry thermometer inside a pot and add several inches of oil, enough for onion ring to submerge fully without hitting bottom when gently "dropped" in.
• Begin to slowly preheat oil while you prep rings and batter. (Keep close watch on your oil temperature.)
• Preheat oven to 200°F.
• Peel and slice the onions about 1-inch thick.
• Separate the slices into rings.
• Mix the dry ingredients for the batter.
• Stir in milk, mixing to combine, but do not overwork the batter. Batter should be thick enough for onion ring to sit upon without sinking into.
• When the oil nears 400°F, coat one onion ring in the batter.
• Carefully "drop" onion ring into 400°F oil.
• Fry the battered rings individually, flipping as needed so that each side reaches a golden brown.
• It should take about 1-2 minutes total, but let color and experience be your guide.

TEMPURA BATTERED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Fill a large Dutch oven or fryer with oil and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Sift dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl and make a well in the center. Crack the egg yolk into a separate bowl and break it up with a fork. Add this to the well in the middle of the flour and slowly pour in the beer as you whisk. Gradually make wider circles with the whisk to incorporate the dry ingredients from the edges - this will minimize the chance of lumps. Continue until all the dry ingredients are mixed and the batter is of a smooth consistency.
• Take the onion rings and remove the thin membrane found between the layers; (otherwise the batter won't stick as well). In a large dish add some rice flour, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Coat each ring in the flour. Dip in the batter and fry in hot oil in batches until golden. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.
