Mashed sardines on toast (low carb bread) are a quick brekky too. I like the
Canadian sardines in soy oil.

My mother used t make a great spread with mashed sardines, lemon juice,
mayo, pepper and "onion juice" I just use ifinely grated onion. Used in
sandwiches or on crackers, etc, it is very nice indeed. You can also use
the canned mackeral if you want. I used to make this for my kids adn
husband's lunch bags.

Onion juice? Literally squeezed onion?

: Nicky.

Actually, so finely grated on the smallest holestthat it turns into a
liquidy slush. I also forgot to add the worchestershire sauce to give
some zip. ( Lea and Perrins, of course.)

ah, OK - thanks, Wendy : ) I think that translates to "zapped in the
small blender" in my household!

Here you can buy onion juice in a bottle. Or at least you used to be able
to. I haven't looked for it. The bottle was brown and shaped like an
onion. I only know about it because when I was in 5th grade I had two
teachers who were roommates. My regular one and the music teacher. They
were constantly playing jokes on one another and they'd tell us what they
did to each other. One of them took onion juice and smeared it around the
rims of all the coffee cups. He said after it dried it just left a faint
onion aroma but you couldn't really trace where it was coming from. Then
when you put the hot coffee in the cup, it really released the aroma and as
the coffee drinker took a swig, look out! This was done in retaliation for
putting salt in the sugar bowl.

Luckily my one teacher got married at the end of the year. Otherwise they
might have done each other in!

One can sometimes find small bottles of onion juice in the market, but
fresh is always better in my book.
