Screenshotting the ways to cook onions bit…truly is make or break! Loved this review. Having bought one of her other cookbooks, I’ve also found some of her newer recipes (from instagram) to be….lackluster?

I appreciate this so much!! I really had no idea about onion cook time, but now that you say it, it's true that when onions are given their proper time, it makes all the difference. They're one of my favorite ingredients so it's a shame when its not done right!

Also yes yes to the book rule. I'm a fellow wisened 32 year old who just doesn't have time for a mediocre book!

I have all three of Alex’s cookbooks each book has a couple of favorite recipes in them . I always am aware that alot of cookbook authors don’t cook onion long enough and this is when I play with recipe for my particular cooking style but still stay true to the recipe .
