Instructions

  1. 1
    Peel onion. Cut off top, leaving root end intact. Make 12–16 even cuts from the top down to about 3/4 inch (2 cm) from the root end — onion should bloom but stay together.
  2. 2
    Soak onion in ice-cold water for 30 minutes to allow it to bloom.
  3. 3
    Mix flour with paprika, garlic powder, cayenne, and oregano. Whisk eggs with buttermilk.
  4. 4
    Drain onion well. Coat in flour mixture, covering all petals. Dip in egg-buttermilk mixture. Coat again in flour mixture.
  5. 5
    Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry onion bloom-side down for 10 minutes. Flip and fry for another 3–4 minutes until golden brown.
  6. 6
    Melt cannabis butter. Mix with mayo, horseradish, ketchup, and paprika to make cannabis dipping sauce.
  7. 7
    Arrange Blooming Onion on a plate with sauce in the center.

Pro Tips

  • A truly large onion (at least 14 oz/400g) is essential — small onions won't bloom properly. Soaking in ice water is the trick for spectacular blooming.
