Brilio.net - Enjoying snacks in your spare time is often an option. There are many snacks that are many people's favorites, such as French fries, cimol , cilok, chips, dumplings, onion rings, and many more. Talking about onion rings, this snack is made from onions.
How to make onion rings is fairly easy. Onions that have been washed clean can be sliced thinly. Once done, just dip the onion slices one by one into the flour mixture.
So that the crispy results last longer, some people deliberately add baking soda to the flour mixture. Even though the results are crispy, the addition of baking soda sometimes makes the onion rings taste bitter. If it's like this, the onion rings will be less enjoyable, right?
As a solution, you can copy the recipe and method for making onion rings shown by TikTok user @agakenyang_. Instead of adding baking soda, this netizen actually mixed one drink ingredient into the flour mixture. According to him, this method is effective in making the texture of the onion rings crispy for a long time.
"The crispiness lasts a long time, up to 3 hours after frying it is still crispy, hihi," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from TikTok @agakenyang_ on Monday (11/3).

How to store onions so they are always fresh and last a long time.
To store onions so they stay fresh, don't rot, and last a long time, you can follow these steps:
1. Choose good onions.
Choose fresh onions with dry, undamaged outer skin. Avoid choosing ones that have started to germinate or have signs of damage.
2. Don't wash too early.
Avoid washing onions before storage. Moisture can speed up rotting. Only wash onions when you are going to use them.
3. Save it in the right place.
Good storage space is very important. Store onions in a cool, dark, dry place. A dark basement, refrigerator, or storage room are good options. Avoid storing it in damp places such as near a sink or shower.
4. Separate from other fruits.
Keep onions away from other fruits, especially those that emit ethylene gas such as apples and bananas. This gas can speed up the ripening and rotting of onions.
5. Do not store in plastic bags.
Plastic bags can accelerate mold growth and cause onions to rot quickly. It is better to store it in an open container or basket that can provide ventilation.
By following the steps above, you can extend the shelf life of onions and maintain their quality for longer.
