Capt'n Salsa SuggestS.

To reduce the harshness of a strong onion.

 

Prepare your onions by slicing or chopping and then place in a bowl of ice

water. Soak the onions in the ice water for 60 to 90 minutes. Change the water 2

or 3 times during this time period.

 

If you are in a hurry place onions in a strainer and rinse under cold running

water for at least one minute.

 

Drain the onions and pat dry with paper towels before using.
