cook very low and slow for forever and you will have nice caramelized onions. they cook down a lot.

Dice and pickle them and put em in your fridge they'll stay good forever. Then you put em on tacos, sandwiches, hot dogs, whatever needs some crunch and some acid.

I usually slice half of one of those up and cook that along with a can of beans and some spices. They keep pretty well, so doing that for just one meal a day goes through the whole batch long before they can spoil.

yeah consistently doing cooking would get thru onions at a good rate but im a bit uhhh lazy. i think i need to get a little ahead with a onion heavy dish or two

[–] KobaCumTribute@hexbear.net 8 points 1 week ago

I get around that by almost exclusively eating food I prepare myself and just not having alternatives on hand so I'm forced to cook. The ravening hunger drives me to cook, and the laziness helps me ration food so I don't run out.

Start by selecting the quantity of onions you can use in your regular cooking before they go bad. Set aside. Take remaining onions and seal in an air-tight storage container. Place storage container in continuous circular motion about a rapidly rotating compact mass. This will preserve the onions and keep them from going bad. Once you work through your current stash of onions, retrieve another batch from storage. Keep doing so until all onions are consumed.

Are you suggesting storing the onions in orbit?

[–] WoodScientist@hexbear.net 3 points 1 week ago

Well, not just any orbit...

You could caramelize all of them and then freeze them in an ice cube tray or 2. When you need onions, just pull one of those bitches out.
