Lime-Onion Taco Garnish

November 20th, 2019 Comments off

2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced crosswise (white and green parts)

1 small red onion, thinly sliced

1/4 cup lime juice (from 2 or 3 limes)

Kosher salt

Combine the scallions and half the red onion slices in a medium bowl.

Here’s a trick to give you less onion breath (you’ll thank us later!): Cover the onions and scallions with hot tap water and squeeze them a few times with your hands. Let them stand for about 2 minutes to extract their raw flavor, then drain.

Step 2

Combine the lime juice, the rinsed red onions and scallions, and a pinch of kosher salt in a small jar or liquid measuring cup. Let stand  for at least 10 minutes.
