Instructions

Soak onions in buttermilk for at least 10 minutes.
In a shallow dish add flour, salt, and pepper and mix well.
In a large pan heat vegetable oil to 375 degrees. If you don't have a cooking thermometer, you will be able to tell when the oil is ready when you see bubbles surrounding a wooden utensil (chopstick or spoon) that you hace carefully inserted into the middle of the pot.
Add the onions into the flour to coat, then and add to the heated oil, frying in small batches until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in a dry cool place or your fridge.

Notes

Use these right away or store them in an airtight container in the fridge. If you need to re-crisp them just pop them into a 375F onion for 5 minutes.
