Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

You know this appetizer is a huge hit at the Outback Steakhouse so it will definitely go over big when you serve it to your party guests!

1/3 cup cornstarch, more if needed
1 1/2 cup flour
2 teaspoons garlic, minced
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
24 ounces beer
4 sweet Vidalia onions
Seasoned Flour
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
Creamy Chili Sauce
1 pint mayonnaise
1 pint sour cream
1/2 cup tomato chili sauce
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Mix cornstarch, flour and seasonings until well blended. Add beer, mix well. Cut about 3/4" off top of onion and peel. Cut into onion 12 to 16 vertical wedges but do not cut through bottom root end. Remove about 1" of petals from center of onion. Dip onion in seasoned flour and remove excess by shaking.
Separate petals to coat thoroughly with batter. Gently place in fryer basket and deep-fry at 375 degrees F to 400 degrees F for 1-1/2 minutes. Turn over and fry 1-1/2 minutes longer or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This is such a mess to make! I love eating it at the restaurants but it's a lot of work. It turned out good but too much work! 5 stars because it tasted like the restaurant version.
