So helpfu, i couldn't find how to make a spring onion flower like these ANYWHERE else, not even on Google

[sonushiku]

that was a surprise..I'll sure use these in salad decoration

This is elementary and if I took this long to do one onion at a time, come see me in the next millenium!

I was really surprised O.O at how useless the garnishes are.

[cliffcox66]

@abstractadobo actually, the do serve a very useful function. The function is to enhance presentation. How the food arrives serves to enhance it's initial impression. Seems so self evident. But common sense is not so common.

[abstractadobo]

@cliffcox66 I'm sorry, but a ball of green curly pubes does not really "enhance initial impression" to me. And good job on having common sense! You made a point about something I already knew. I wish I could give you an award... oh wait, I have a ball of curly green pubes you can put on your head to "enhance initial impression".

[cliffcox66]

@abstractadobo You're coookoo. Well you only see functional purpose, not art or embellishment. Sorry your opinion is one of the minority. But it's all good. No need to attack. You posted something that I responded to because you stated something that made it seem like you didn't understand a simple thing. That's why you got my response. you gotta expect someone to point out common sense to your post.

[abstractadobo]

@cliffcox66 I "only see functional purpose"? Wrong again. But it's all good. Of course aesthetics to me was the main issue in this argument!!! :P Look, I don't want to extensively explain my original statement; It could be embarrassing for you. Anyhow, I'm glad you felt compelled to reply to my original post and felt like you did the "majority" a favour by heroically assuming higher intellectual ground over my sarcastic sense of humour and pointing out the "obvious". You just outed yourself.

@abstractadobo Continue taking your Zyprexa, Haldol, and Busparone. It will help balance the chemistry of your mind.

no offense im sure this guy is great and all but when you clean your vegetable in a bowl of water, then place the root garnish in the same bowl of water you apparently cleaned the green onion in, thats not very properly sanitary myself manish

[tastygarlic]

What kind of "My first kitchen" cutting board is that? Sorry, I just tend to be a bit more critical of someone wearing a chef's coat - using a 5" x 9" plastic mystery spatula as a work surface... Am I being too critical?

[friedcrispy]

@tastygarlic

its just a cutting board man

[AmberEats]

[TheCincinnatiKid513]

nope this guy is a fool to me.

[BBOYdaimyo]

[coolspot18]

[NvidiATI]

[Iplayguitarandpiano]

[800665]

life is too short to play with onions

[Iplayguitarandpiano]

I agree lol.

[greatvaluemustard]

Onions in ice water.

That's pretty amazing. I'd have NEVER figured that out on my own. That's so easy and neat I might have to try it out.

Thanks!
