| How To Cook: |
|
|
1. In a mixing bowl, combine the egg yolks, flour, baking soda and salt, and beat them together with a large spoon. Pour in the buttermilk slowly, beating until the mixture forms a fairly smooth paste.
|
2. Heat the shortening in a deep-fat fryer-the fat should be at least 3inches deep until it registers 375°Fon a deep-fat thermometer.
|
3. Separate the onion slices into rings, drop them in the batter and then, 7 or 8 rings at a time, fry them in the fat for 4 to 5 minutes until lightly browned.
|
|
4. Transfer them to paper towels while you proceed with the next batch. When all the onion rings are done, fry them again in the hot fat for a minute or two to heat them through and crisp them. Drain on paper towels and serve sprinkled with salt.
