Ingredients
- 2 large Spanish onions
- 1 cup (150 g) all-purpose flour
- â…“ cup (31 g) EverCrisp
- 2â…“ cup (101 g) Batter Bind S
- ¼ cup, 2 tablespoons (50 g) cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon (5 g) salt
- 1 teaspoon (3.8 g) baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon (1.4 g) baking soda
- 8 fluid ounces (299 g) beer or seltzer water
- 1 gallon neutral-flavored oil
Equipment
- 2 large bowls
- Large, heavy-bottomed pot or cast iron pan
- Thermometer
- Slotted spoon or skimmer
Timing
Active time: 30 minutes
Total time: 2½ hours
Yield
about 3 dozen rings
-
Cut and freeze the onions.
2 large Spanish onions
Cut the onions into ¼- to ½-inch-thick slices and separate into rings. Put the rings in a plastic bag and freeze until solid, 1 to 2 hours.
-
Mix the batter.
- Combine all the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Pour in the beer or seltzer water and mix until incorporated. Do not overmix, as it can make your onion rings gummy.
-
Remove the membranes.
Remove the onion rings from the bag and thaw in a large bowl under warm running water. Once they are thawed, peel away the inner membrane from each ring. This will prevent your onion rings from pulling completely out of the breading after one bite. (This tip comes from Serious Eats.)
-
Heat the oil.
1 gallon neutral-flavored oil
Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or cast iron pan to 350°F (175°C).
-
Fry the onion rings.
One by one, dip the onion rings into the batter, then drop them into the hot oil. Work in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and delicious looking, about 2 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon or skimmer to transfer the onion rings to paper towels to drain. Repeat with the remaining onion rings.
-
Serve.
Serve immediately or hold under a heat lamp for up to 4 hours.

Can you use EverCrisp to make a non-flavor coating that helps spices adhere to popcorn and acts as a non-flavor preservative? I don’t want to add sugar to the popcorn, but I need the cheese and spices to stick without getting soggy.
Evercrisp does not increase adhesion. It keeps fried products crispy when it’s added to the batter or breading. We may have something that will work for you. Please contact [email protected] and let her know what you’re trying to accomplish.
Hello there!
Just wanted to point out that the mention of EverCrisp in the ingredients list doesn’t contain a link to the product in your shop.
Cheers!
Thanks for pointing this out. We have fixed the link.

Does evercrisp work in an airfryer?
Yes it does!
Just made these with the addition of the Batter Bind. Hands down the best onion rings I’ve ever made. Even better than restaurant rings my husband said. I did add a bit of spices in the mix for a kick.
Glad you loved them! The addition of spices is a fantastic way to kick up the flavor.
