Serving Suggestions:

• In his update, John called out the white onions and how you could use the inner stalks as you would the bulb for less waste. It immediately made me think of a Youtube cooking video from Andrew Zimmern that I saw today. In the video he made an onion-forward pasta that comes together with pantry/fridge ingredients. The biggest ingredient is patience: you need to give the onions time to fry and drive all the moisture out. It reminds me of another favorite, Samin Nosrat’s fried shallots. Zimmern’s recipe is behind a paywall, but between his newsletter entry and video on the dish you’ll be able to put it together. I don’t have enough onions on hand to try it today but will definitely make it soon!
