Sure, that would be sauteed onions. Very good, I make the often. Other
times I make them caramelized depending on what I want as the end
result. They are two different things, both good.

Sauteed onions is fine with me. I wouldn't want to confuse people.

How did you know I'm Batman?

Yesterday, we made a bunch of shave ice for a fund raiser. Every year it's
the same thing - our shave ice is junk. It's more like a mainland snow
cone - a disgrace! I will have to work on this problem - after all, I'm
Batman.

But is there a way to make browned onions that are not caramelized? I can't
remember who the guy was that posted a pic of what he made. They were
clearly brown but SF said they were only browned and not caramelized.

I say "Who gives a RED RAT'S ASS"? if there is a way? We're not writing a
final exam on freakin' onions. Let them judge for themselves.

In southern Ontario we would know what you were talking about but we
would likely only call them tennis shoes if they were one of the newer
types designed specifically for tennis. If you are using them in an
indoor facility they might would be gym shoes, but would more likely be
called running shoes or simply runners.


> Soda or pop? Reader's Digest had an article with maps showing regional

differences on some words.

Around here it is pop. I recall having supper in a diner in Vermont and
the waitress asked my son if he wanted a soda and he had no idea what
she meant.

What's in a name? No one seems to know. Look at all the drinks that are
named some sort of martini because they are served in a Martini glass.


> http://www.rd.com/culture/regional-s...phrases-words/


It is interesting to note that here in southern Ontario we seem to use
the terms used by the US states close to us, and I note that firefly
would appear to have moved south from here. Garage sale and yard sale
are interchangeable here. Y'all is an unfortunate joke to us. Trash is a
verb for us, as trashing something. Otherwise, the nouns is garbage. A
truck and trailer was always tractor trailer. 18 wheeler is something
that came along in the 80s. Semi truck is a misnomer. The semi is
another misnomer because the truck is a truck or tractor. Trucks and
tractor(trucks) haul trailer or semi trailers. A trailer is a vehicle
that is towed by a truck, and a semi trailer is a trailer that is
designed so that the truck (tractor) bears some of the weight of the
trailer, as in the case of a 5th wheel trailer.

I rarely caramelize onions. I don't have the patience for it. One of the
few things I do it for is one of my signature dishes on the RFC site,
braised lamp shanks with caramelized onions. The shanks are braised with
carrots, zucchini and chick peas and served with a topping of onions
that have been caramelized with a variety of spices.

Lamp shanks! Dear gawd. You'd need teeth of steel to eat those things.
Please don't invite me to dinner. I'll have to decline.

Apparently the lamb shanks you have eaten in the past haven't been
cooked for long enough. If you braise the lamb shanks in liquid for
the appropriate amound of time, they are fall-apart tender. The
texture is similar to pulled pork.

We love lamb shanks braised in either beer or red wine, with lots of
carrots, onions, and celery. I serve it with polenta.

I've never cooked lamb, shanks or not. I'm not a big meat eater and would
never eat lamb. Would never eat pulled pork either. Only pork that I eat is
bacon.

Dave said that he cooked lamp shanks. I wouldn't eat those either.

Then how would you know that you'd need teeth of steel to eat them?

Did you not read what he wrote? L-A-M-P. Lamp. Not lamb. Lamps are generally
made of glass, wood, metal, sometimes plastic but they're not usually soft.

But is there a way to make browned onions that are not caramelized? I can't
remember who the guy was that posted a pic of what he made. They were
clearly brown but SF said they were only browned and not caramelized.

Cook them fast but be careful they are not burned!

But would they not still be caramelized? I thought browned was caramelized.

I remember that post where the guy said he caramelized onions in about
20 minutes. He showed a picture and they did look like nicely
caramelized onions to me.

But then SF said that there is no way he could carmelize onions in only
20 minutes. Should be more like 40 minutes or so. That's why she
claimed that they were not truly caramelized.

You should learn not to bother replying to our resident narcissist and
pathological liar. She lies so much that she cannot keep her lies
straight. First she had lamb shanks so tough she needed teeth of steel.
Then she said she would never eat lamb.

Yes. But that makes no sense to me.

Dave! Do you not even see your typo? I was poking fun at you. You said that
you made LAMP shanks. LAMP! Not lamb. Then others read it as "lamb" and
started lambasting me about my lamb. I hadn't even said anything about lamb.
I don't eat lamb. I don't make lamb.

Not being able to see one up close, it may be a matter of degree. I
often saute onions and they may start to brown, but are not truly
caramelized, just browning on the outer surface, translucent inside.

That's because he's too busy replying with his insults directed at you to
notice his mistake. Dumbass.

I'd prefer you use a sniper rifle on me from a few hundred yards away.
There you go - a reason for you to buy yet another gun and ammo.
