Default 11/42 cup of finely chopped onion

Really? Just look at this recipe!

The rest of the amounts seem normal. But to me that one doesn't.

Lookit who's tawkin' 'bout *normal*. LOL

Hey, a recipe is only a guide, use as much/little onion as you like...
of all the ingredients to question the amount of onion is the most
asinine... didn't you ever hear of "to taste"? I would have picked an
onion that looked about right to ME and used it all, I'd have used two
full cups runneth over... you know how I like full cups! hehe

No worse than directions such as "1 cup plus 21/2 tsp" of whatever.

How about 1/4 to 1/2 cup onion?

Well if you actually used 11/42nd of a cup you'd be practically spot on to
1/4 cup. Me, I'd go more for 37/78ths because I like onions in meatballs.
