Secret Ingredients Make Extra Crunchy And Crispy Onion Rings
Chef John’s Crispy Onion Rings
Ingredients:
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornstarch
2 tablespoons instant mashed potatoes
big pinch of cayenne
1 cup cold club soda
2-3 cups Panko (Japanese-style breadcrumbs), or as needed
fine sea salt to taste
vegetable oil for frying**
2-3 yellow onions, cut into 1/4-inch rings
*Note: the amounts in the video were for a smaller batch. The amounts above will make a nice large batch, enough for about 8 servings.
**Chef John mentions that he uses olive oil for frying. Regular olive oil is fine, but do NOT use Extra Virgin Olive Oil as it has a lower smoking point.
