    You’re probably the only one who cooks them with *that* red wine. Yikes!

  2. Nice April fools. So what wine did you pour back into that bottle? πŸ˜‚

  3. I love April 1st.

    Let me go pour some of my 1983 dYquem over grocery-store brand vanilla ice cream.

    (Actually I think someone here did that for real once)

    Yummy! If anyone needs more wine and cooking hacks, DM me. I find adding a little red wine toward the beginning of the caramelization process can add a lot of flavor. This wasn’t the best wine I’ve ever used for it, it was a little too earthy. But I was in a rush and I grabbed the first one I found from my uncle’s cellar (the rest of his wine is mostly “Caymus”, and I know that one is really special, so I figured he wouldn’t miss whatever this is.) I’ll probably use the rest next week for a springtime vinaigrette!

    Fun fact: if you do the trick to speed cook onions with baking soda and they turn purple/green, adding acid reverses the color change.
    Also never use baking soda cause it tastes like shit.

    The real crime here is that foil/capsule cut !!

    Yeah. Wasn’t my favorite Roumier vintage either. :’)

    Yes, you are. No one in the world has thought of that.

    You are a hero!

    Funny gag, but also, adding any alcohol to onions in the pan is 🀌
