I recently googled the history of onion rings and came to an inconclusive result. The actual creator is unknown, although there are claims by a few establishments that they invented the onion ring. I was just curious, because I really love onion rings. They’re just so perfectly tasty. My favorite kinds are beer battered onion rings, and the ones we have for you today are extra crispy and totally delicious. Using the rice flour instead of all purpose flour creates the extra crispy coating around the soft, sweet onion rings.

When we shot these onion rings I sliced them a little bit too thin, so for the recipe I wrote them to be cut a little on the thicker side, which is how I prefer them. You can adjust the thickness of the rings based on your likeness, but I think they cook the best and most even when cut anywhere from 1/2″-1″.

Although this recipe might take a little more effort with the frying, the rest of the recipe is so simple and these totally make the perfect summer side for all those grilled burgers, hot dogs, tacos, etc. Enjoy! xx, Jenny
