[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Recipes that call for half an onion. What the heck am I supposed to do with the other half of the onion? It dries up in the fridge. And is it half a large onion or medium onion or small onion? [/quote] For things like onions, it just doesn’t have to be that precise. I buy bags of onions that have a variety of sizes in it. If it says “half an onion” I pull out a small small one and use that. If all I have is a slightly bigger one, I put it all in. If all I have is a huge one, then I chop the whole thing and put half in a container in the fridge because odds are really good I will cook something else in the next day that needs onion or I could add onion to. For garlic, I have moved on to those frozen Dorot cubes (so much better than jarlic) and never looked back.[/quote]
