Directions
1. To slice onion: slice 1 inch off the top and bottom of the onion and remove the papery skin. Use a thin
knife to cut a 1 inch diameter core out of the middle of the onion. Now use a very sharp, large knife to
slice the onion several times down the center to create 'petals': First slice through the center of the
onion to about three-fourths of the way down. Turn the onion 90 degrees and slice it again in an X
across the first slice. Keep slicing the sections in half, very carefully until the onion has been cut 8-16
times. Do not cut down to the bottom of the onion. (The last 8 slices will be difficult, be careful).

down to remove excess
8. Using a ladle, ladle the egg mixture into every crevice. Lift up onion and turn to make sure excess egg
drips off.
