@Hagukh@mas.to One onion, over a kilogram‽ Wow!

@Hagukh@mas.to this would give me death by acid reflux, but i'd die happy

@Hagukh@mas.to Boah! So I suggest that it's a "sweet" legume onion, not one of the sharp ones?
How do you get such monsters? 😉

@Hagukh@mas.to Going to be a very large zwiebelkucken 😉

@Hagukh@mas.to “that’s no onion…”

@Hagukh@mas.to onion that is 1kg, that's a monster 😯

@Hagukh@mas.to woah!

@Hagukh@mas.to Getting up there into Gareth Griffin territory!

A Chernobyl onion most likely (joking).

@Hagukh@mas.to Yikes! What do you feed them? Burglars?

@Hagukh@mas.to
Remind me again, why do recipes list things like onions and carrots as a number and not how many gram?

I had the reverse the other day, I bought 1 kg carrots. My bolognese recipe says two carrots, but these carrots are maybe a quarter of the size of the ones I used last time.

Took me several attempts with Google before I found a recipe that said 50 gram. I guess 1 kg carrots was a bit much, that's enough for 20 days in a row. Or almost half a year if I eat bolognese once per week.

But then I suspect my previous attempts haf way too much carrot.

@Hagukh@mas.to lots of pfffft.

@Hagukh@mas.to Ooh, reminds me, I gotta try making a blooming onion sometime

@Hagukh@mas.to Wow, that’s a chonker!

@Hagukh@mas.to @CiaraNi@mastodon.green Damn, that is impressive! 😄

@Hagukh@mas.to Good job!

I know that with some types of produce the size of them affects the taste. For example, smaller strawberries are often sweeter.

Do you know if something similar can be said about onions? Are the big ones as flavourful as the small ones? Or maybe more flavourful?

@Hagukh@mas.to a mammoth

@Hagukh@mas.to nioce!

@Hagukh@mas.to @briankrebs@infosec.exchange it’s French onion soup time.

@Hagukh@mas.to u could bludgeon some1 w that thing damn

@Hagukh@mas.to that's a bloomin' big onion!

@Hagukh@mas.to That is enough for four plates of pasta with caramelised onions.

@Hagukh@mas.to "Zweibelkuchen" implies "non-kuchen Zweibel".
Apart from a small use in the performing arts, I'm not sure what you'd use them for. Eating raw?

@Hagukh@mas.to bijzonder!!!
