How do you make ONION juice?

You can't really make "onion juice" in the traditional sense like you would with orange juice. Onions don't have enough liquid to be juiced in the same way.

However, you can create a liquid extract from onions that's similar to juice. Here's how:

Method 1: Blending and Straining

1. Prepare the onions: Peel and roughly chop 1-2 large onions.

2. Blend: Add the chopped onions to a blender and add a small amount of water (1-2 tablespoons) to help it blend.

3. Strain: Line a fine-mesh sieve with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel. Pour the blended onion mixture through the sieve, pressing down gently to extract as much liquid as possible.

4. Use: The liquid you've extracted is your onion "juice." You can use it immediately or store it in the refrigerator for a few days.

Method 2: Grating and Pressing

1. Grate: Grate 1-2 large onions finely.

2. Press: Wrap the grated onion in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze firmly to extract the juice. You can use a heavy object like a pot or pan to help with the pressing.

3. Use: The liquid you've extracted is your onion "juice." You can use it immediately or store it in the refrigerator for a few days.

Using Onion "Juice":

* Cooking: This onion "juice" can be used in soups, sauces, stews, and other dishes to add a strong onion flavor. It can also be used to make a marinade for meats and vegetables.

* Medicinal uses: Some people use onion "juice" topically for skin conditions like acne.

Important Notes:

* Onion "juice" will have a strong, pungent flavor. Use sparingly, as it can be overpowering.

* Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

* The liquid will not be clear like traditional juice but will have a cloudy, slightly viscous texture.
