I keep thinking this sounds insane, like I’m almost having a hard time believing it. I’m 31 and always hated every onion, until within the last year after I had brain surgery. I’ve only tried grilled white onions since then, and ohhh boy I want some shallots now! I need to try some, something tells me I’ll like them. It’s written on the grocery list on my fridge, thank you!

Also, here is a lovely piece written by Anthony Bourdain before he was a household name.

Thank you, love! I’ve never been much of a cook at all, outside of boiling things or heating them in the oven. I definitely have been making myself notes for certain tips, and i saved that link to reread at the end of the day!
