- Лук
ONION Popular vegetable which combines in flavor with practically all vegetables, and some fruits e. g., apple, and orange; also with all meat and fish. Tender young tops may be minced and used as a garnish for soups and salads.
1 small onion = 1/3 cup = 1 teaspoon onion powder = 1 tablespoon dried onion flakes
There are two categories of dry onions: storage onions and sweet onions. Storage onions are low in water and high in sulfur, so they store well and are available year-round. Sweet onions are usually available just from April to August. Storage onions are more pungent and flavorful than sweet onions, and they're best if cooked before eating. Sweet onions are usually served raw or lightly cooked.
Onions should be firm and heavy for their size. Avoid onions that have sprouted or that have an odor, or that have green or moldy blemishes. If you're prone to crying while cutting onions, try chilling them first, then peeling them under running water. Always cook onions over low or medium heat, since they become bitter at high temperatures.
Substitutes: white bulbs of leeks OR shallots OR green onions (Cook these for no more than a minute.) OR chopped daikon (salt and rinse first if serving raw) OR garlic OR asafoetida powder (This Indian spice has a strong, pungent flavor and is used as an onion substitute by people who can't eat them for religious reasons.) OR fresh herbs |
