I make kasha varnishkes a little bit differently than this recipe calls
for. I use only about two cups of onions. I replace the other two cups
of onions with a mixture of diced celery, sliced button mushrooms, and
diced green pepper, all of which I saute until slightly firm in a bit of
butter before the kasha is added. The extra vegetables give the kasha a
much nicer flavor.
