TikTok’s latest food trend is eating entire baked onions. The “onion boil” features onions stuffed with butter and heavily seasoned, similar to a seafood boil. The trend, popularized by videos with millions of views (like with the viral cucumber salad creator), draws comparisons to dolmas (a similar stuffed dish) but is simplified in its additions. One video by @stephpappas has nearly 13M views where she shows her take on the trend, which inspired many commentors to try the recipe. The trend has now inspired more onion-based recipes on TikTok, gaining a wide audience of experimental home cooks. (Mashable)
