Crispy Onion Rings

Name: Crispy Onion Rings
Prep time: 10 min

Yield: 2 servings
Cuisine: Global
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (for dry mix); 2 tsp baking powder; 1 1/2 tbsp salt-pepper-garlic-powder seasoning blend (or 1 tsp salt + 1 tsp pepper + 1/2 tsp garlic powder); 1/2 tbsp coarse-ground black pepper; 2 tsp smoked paprika; 1 large yellow onion, sliced into 1/4 to 1/2-inch rings; 1 box (about 8 oz / 225 g) panko breadcrumbs; High-temperature frying oil (vegetable, peanut, or canola); 1 cup whole milk (for wet batter); 1/2 cup sour cream; 2 tbsp honey

The double-dredge — wet → dry → wet → dry → panko — is what creates the distinctively crunchy battered crust diner-style onion rings have. Single-dredge onion rings get a thin shatter-style crust; double-dredged rings build up a substantial, crackling shell that holds up against the dip. Smoked paprika in the dry mix is the unexpected flavor kicker.
