2020 Adapted Recipe - April Ferre - from Top Secret Recipes by Todd Wilbur, 2015.
"I have tried an failed twice now to make a decent Bloomin' Onion at home. I think it must be the small fryer and trying to use standard-sized onions. But I was able to come up with a variation of the dipping sauce that is really tasty, and would go great with onion rings or as an alternative for dipping fresh vegetables. I toned down the spice a bit from the original recipe, but feel free to adjust the horseradish and Tabasco to taste." - April Ferre
