• Meanwhile, fill a heavy pot with 3 inches of vegetable oil and heat to 350 degrees F. Sift the flour mixture to remove any clumps.
• Dunk the onions a second time in the buttermilk and toss in the flour. Shake off any excess flour before dropping the rings into the hot oil. Fry until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F. Set two cooling racks over two rimmed baking sheets.

• Heat an inch of oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until it registers 350°F on a deep fry/candy thermometer. Working in batches to prevent crowding, dredge the onion rings in the batter and immediately drop into the oil. Cook onion rings, turning once, until golden, about 3 minutes total. Transfer cooked rings to the cooling racks set over the baking sheets. Sprinkle with salt and keep warm in oven while frying remaining batches.

Steps:

• In a large pot over medium-high heat, bring 3 inches (8 cm) of oil to 375˚F (190˚C).
• Peel and cut onions crosswise into ½ (1 ⅓ cm) inch slices.
• Separate into rings and place in a large bowl with ice water while you prepare the batter.
• In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour (125 g), salt, white pepper, and baking powder.
• Whisk in beer and 2 tablespoons of ice water until just combined.
• In a separate bowl, add the remaining 1 cup (125 g) of flour.
• Remove the rings from the ice water bath and pat dry. Coat the rings first in the flour then in the batter, allowing any excess to drip off.
• Working in batches, transfer battered rings to hot oil to cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Transfer to a paper towel lined rack to drain. Sprinkle with salt.
• Enjoy!
