Have you ever tried hollowing out the middle of the onion and adding stuff into the middle? Basically a stuffed onion. When I make mine, I scoop out the middle, then add cheese, bacon, butter, salt, pepper, or whatever you want to add to it. Wrap it up in foil and cook on the grill or in the oven. Soooo good!
I’m from Ga too! Nothing better than Vidalia onions. I make the onions in foil with butter too. So good! I also sprinkle a small amount of powdered beef bouillon over the butter too and wrap up and bake or grill. So so good!!!!!
My Mom was raised up in the hills of West Virginia. I don't know if they had Vidalia onions or not but she LOVED onions. When my Dad retired from the Air Force (after 20 years) they planted a garden. I can still remember my Mom picking an onion, washing if off, cutting it and eating it right there in the garden! We all of course thought that was pretty weird, but she loved them.
I only cook with sweet onions as well. They are wonderful. I know some chefs say they’re not strong enough for some cooked dishes but I haven’t noticed that. I love the flavor and I love cutting up onions without eyes watering. I can find some type of sweet onion in the stores year round.
Years and years ago when I purchased vidalia onions, they were so sweet and lovely. You could even bite into them like an apple (like you did)....ahhh wonderful. BUT over the years something has changed. I never seem to get a sweet vidalia any more and haven't for years. I still buy them hoping I'll get a good one, but they are bitey and burn my eyes and just don't have that vidalia taste. With my ranting done I want to thank you for the recipes.
I believe our taste buds change with age. I can't eat spicy or hot foods anymore it just doesn't taste like it did. Homegrown vegetables don't taste like they did when I was a young man. Nothing seems to taste as well as it used to. I have a friend he says the government has done something to the seeds they sell the small farmers and growers and it's affected not only taste but the yield because they don't want us growing our own food.
So glad y’all came together in this video!! See, there truly IS enough room for everyone to do their thing!! And I can think of two better gals to share their souther expertise with the rest of us!!! Thanks ladies!!!💜 🥄 🥣 🍽 💜
I only cook with sweet onions. Here in TX, we get Texas Sweet onions. I guess it is a cousin to Vidalias. I don't like raw onions of any kind, but these cooked I do use regularly in my recipes. I will have to try the foil packet. Looks good. I think a lot of people forget that an onion is a vegetable as much as it is an aromatic in cooking.
Love your videos, your grilled Vidalia is something I've been doing for many years but with a couple of added items you might enjoy. Jack Daniels and garlic salt and pepper. Yes, the small amount of booze is with the real butter, be sure to taste test the Jack Daniels for quality control ...
My husband does a variation on the grilled. He hollows out the Vidalia onion, pops a chicken bouillon (Beef works too) in the center, then a big pat of butter. Wrap in foil and proceed as the chef did here.
I'm also from GA and probably ate 200 pounds of them each summer growing up in various ways. We did this as a snack in the microwave (wrapped in Saran wrap - no foil), only we added a dash of worstcheshire sauce, too. Yum.
Use an apple corer and make a hole in the center of the onion. Stuff it with a beef bouillon cube, butter and salt and pepper, wrap in foil and bake. Yum...best with a hobo meal around the campfire...yes, ma'am!
In your cooked onion, core out the middle (not all the way through) put a beef bouillon cube in the middle then fill with butter, wrap in foil and cook, bake, grill whatever. Tastes like onion soup.
Hey Nicole! I just bought a Vidalia onion from my grocery store based specifically on your recommendation here. I'm from Ontario, Canada but the onion did have a Vidalia sticker on it. I'm going to use it in my chilli tonight, hopefully it is good like you said! 🥰
Paula Deen has a method of cooking them by adding a beef bouillon cube to the butter & it's similar to French onion soup. I've been meaning to try it...
My 25-year-old daughter and I went to the store with my Mom. While Mom was sitting (she was in her late 70's), she asked my DD to go get some 10/15 onions. Those are very similar to Vidalia Onions from 1 TX. DD asked, "How many, 10 or 15." We couldn't stop laughing. I love Vidalia, 10/15, Walla Wallas.
Oh yum Vidalia my favorite! That dip looks great going to try that. Also, what about sprinkling Italian bread crumbs on that onion in aluminum foil? I love cooking with Vidalias in soups stews omelets. Less reflux than red onions too. Thanks ❤️
Really enjoy your videos, Nicole. Both of these look and sound delicioua. But then, I am an onion lover - I'll eat an onion sandwich just made with cooking onions! (Of course, when I'm not going to be in public, LOL) 😋😊
Sadly, this onion is not sold here in the UK. So many USA recipes on RUclips cannot be made because of ingredients only purchased in USA - it's frustrating!!!!! Not to mention annoying watching videos which one can never make.
Wow! I cannot wait to try your Vidalia recipes! Being a Northerner, I have not eaten sweet onions, but I am going to. Your Vidalia dip looks fantastic, and your baked whole onion with butter, salt and pepper looks crazy good. Can you tell me the temp and time I should give in the oven for a whole Vidalia onion? I have Subscribed to your channel!
My aunt taught me to do this with onions, butter & season salt in the microwave! Of course, no foil was used. Was a FAVORITE snack!!! I’m thinking about throwing some on a campfire or pit fire now. 🥳😋 Thank you for bringing this back to life for me!
I follow a RUclips channel called Towsends, where they mimic 17th century living and cooking for the most part.. In 1808, a cookbook called New System Of Domestic Cookery has a recipe for simple roasted onion. Bake with skins on, do not cut, this can be done with a plain yellow onion as well, although I think a sweet onion would be much more tasty. After baking for 40 minutes or a little more, cut off the bottom and squeeze out the onion, sprinkle with salt and butter if you have it. I have made this the 1808 way, and it is delicious.
If you can ever find them, you need to try Imperial sweet onions. From Imperial, California. They rarely make it out of the valley there. They are usually all bought up by the locals. I found them sweeter than Vidalias
Shouldn't say this but... Had a girlfriend who made turkey stuffed mushroom caps out of Better Homes and Gardens back in the 90"s I believe. Have never found that book anywhere. Can you find it and show me how to make them please?
Here in Texas we get 1015s, which are also deliciously sweet! But I have to say, I'm from Alabama originally and Mother always used Vidalia whenever she could!
Hello I love all your recipes they are the best .I even tried you vanilla cake box taste like homemade the best . Can you make more cake box recipes like the yellow cake white cake chocolate cake strawberries cake lemon cake etc🙏❤️💋

Onions and butter… a match made in heaven…. Mmmmm

Never have done that I'm gonna try that⭐
I really like that idea....thanks!!

Sounds good 👍
Yum!!

Running to make that dip!

Oh my golly. I sure will cook/bake my Vidalia onion like this from now on. Thank you!

I agree, they don't taste like they used to. Something is amiss in Vidalia.

Omg yes that's all I buy unless I need a red onion but they are not the same
I was making the ground beef for lasagna for my daughters graduation and everyone left the house we were all crying

Omg!!! The onion packet-- put butter and soy sauce!!! Just try it! So good! No better smell than onions and garlic cooking with butter-YUM!
I absolutely love Vidalia onions. Yum I Love them fried in butter so Tasty. Thanks for sharing.
I do the same but add a spoon of granulated beef bullion on top before grilling. Makes a delicious side with a steak!
I love to cook onions this way! Especially Vidalia onions
Scoop out center, add beef bouillon cube and a generous pat of butter. Cover with plastic wrap and cook in microwave til soft. Yum!
Great recipes Nicole ❤️
Red onions are the strongest in flavor.
I love them!! Their is nothing better

Vidalia Onion sandwiches with Duke’s Mayo, maybe with a slice of cheese.
The recipe ingredients on the link to Allrecipes are different than the video. I’m following the video recipe. Good recipe!
♥️♥️♥️♥️ from INDIA
I'm gonna go buy some "ruffles" and eat this for the rest of my day hahaha. Already chopping up my Vidalias!!!
For the Vidalia onion in the oven - WHAT TEMP AND HOW LONG ?? Please I want to make these . THANK YOU
Oh yum Vidalia my favorite! That dip looks great going to try that. Also, what about sprinkling Italian bread crumbs on that onion in aluminum foil? I love cooking with Vidalias in soups stews omelets. Less reflux than red onions too. Thanks ❤️

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️
Can you buy them as bulbs to grow where you live? I live in Iowa. Thank you!
What are white onions used for and how strong is a White onions taste?
AMAZING YUMMY 😋 ONION SWEET THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜
Is there a substitute cheese for swiss that is recommended?
I had no idea Nicole was her name or that she had an ig account, I dont think she has ever mentioned or i must have missed it
Does it caramelizes better than others?
I think it does because of its extra sweetness
Sweet onion pie? Or tart?
No. Onion rings must be dipped in mayo/ketchup blend 👍😉
The written recipe is so different than this video. Don’t think you should be linking this video to that recipe. Fix it please.
Sadly, this onion is not sold here in the UK. So many USA recipes on RUclips cannot be made because of ingredients only purchased in USA - it's frustrating!!!!! Not to mention annoying watching videos which one can never make.

Amazing

"I don't dip my onion rings in ketchup" ... SMH.
My father in Louisiana cuts them into thin slices batter and fry with seasonings- calls them Slivers and are a hit at every fried fish gathering.
Can you dice and freeze for winter?
Don't think they are just in the south
Here in Texas we get 1015s, which are also deliciously sweet! But I have to say, I'm from Alabama originally and Mother always used Vidalia whenever she could!
Hello I love all your recipes they are the best .I even tried you vanilla cake box taste like homemade the best .
