💡 Pro Tips
- ✓Fry onion rings at exactly 350-365°F because lower temps create soggy rings while higher temps burn the coating before the onion cooks through.technique350-365°F
- ✓Soak cut onions in ice water for 30 minutes before breading to remove sulfur compounds that cause bitterness and firm up the texture.timing30 minutes
- ✓Use a 3-stage breading system: flour, then egg wash with 2 tablespoons milk per egg, then breadcrumbs for maximum adhesion and crunch.technique2 tablespoons milk per egg
- ✓Cut onions into 1/2-inch thick rings because thinner rings overcook while thicker ones stay raw inside during the 2-3 minute fry time.ingredient1/2-inch thickness
- ✓Let breaded rings rest on a wire rack for 10 minutes before frying so the coating adheres properly and won't fall off in oil.timing10 minutes
