Normally, this would be Burger Nite for our new 'clan'. However, one of the 'clan' has been injured and her husband/caregiver is ill from exhaustion.. My dear, sweet, angel SIL fell last week and broke her hip. She underwent surgery and is expected to make a full recovery! Yay! That's the good news and we are all so thankful! But her dear, sweet husband, from taking care of her and worrying about her. has exhausted himself and is now 'under the weather' himself. so, now we need to care for and pray for the both of them. They are the 'glue' of our Outsiders' clan.
on to my recipe critique for today. Onion Strings. These were simple to make. I was looking for something that could be made ahead, the heated and served at our Burger Nites. I coated the onion strings, then put them out on parchment paper covered baking sheets. Next, I froze them until time for dinner (about 5 hours). Baked them in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes. They ended up burning before the coating even came close to being done. They tasted like burned flour-covered paste. So, into the trash went that batch. Today, I cooked the remaining 2 batches in hot oil (like the recipe instructed). Once again, into the freezer they went. I haven't tried heating them yet. ?However, I did sample them after they froze. They actually tasted pretty good frozen, so I feel fairly confident that they will be yummy, once reheated.
