As the mornings become more crisp, and the hint of fall is in the air - I always start to crave these. No dish is more nostalgic for me than fried green tomatoes.

I have never had a blooming onion until last night - but let me tell you, not only is it stunning on the table, but it is delicious to boot. I now understand all of the hype. The process is actually quite easy to make and it is completely manageable in a home kitchen.

Crispy, creamy, and bright - all in a bite. Serve immediately. Here is a little trick: It is easiest to stuff the blossoms if you pick them first thing in the morning when the flowers are open.
