My mother does not like onions.
I am glad I did not inherit that horrific genetic abnormality.
My gf does not like the texture of onions.
The taste is fine with her, so I think I'm gonna have to get used to cooking for her with minced onions...
My mom was (and is) a terrible cook in many other ways, but the 'I'm not making you anything with onions in it' as a kid kind of sucked.
I'm just glad my grandmother was a good cook.
I feel bad for my brother right now, since his gf cannot have onions and garlic due to a food intolerance. At least spring onions are still tolerable, but still...
Garlic and onions are the basis for so many things that we cook at my house. I can't imagine not having them in my diet.
I don't like onions. It's literally the one food I do not like. I've tried them many times, many ways, and still nope.
Raw and cooked? Maybe try it minced, cooked extremely soft and mixed into a sauce so there are no visible pieces?
I will use it to cook in soups and such, but otherwise, no thank you. I've replaced it with leeks and shallots.
Shallots and leeks are nice! Welcome to the Allium family:)
