You’ve got by no means fairly certain what meals TikTok goes to obsess over subsequent. One month it is cottage cheese in all the pieces, the following it is a dense bean salad.
Proper now TikTok is admittedly into — of all issues — onions. Most notably a lot of of us are cooking a dish colloquially dubbed an “onion boil,” which is successfully all of the stuff you’d see in a seafood boil — a lot of butter and seasoning — stuffed inside an onion.
The very best TikTok meals developments of 2024 (to date)
Movies of parents making onion boils have racked up hundreds of thousands of views. And it actually is so simple as I wrote earlier: You core an onion, stuff it with butter, and season it to all hell. Then it’s baked in foil for a bit and served. This TikTok from @stephpappas, as an illustration, racked up practically 10 million views.
Mashable High Tales
Or here is one other from @thishealthytable that has some 3 million views.
To be sincere — and that is my opinion — they type of seem like soggy intestine bombs. However I think about onion plus butter plus seasoning served over a starch — as an instance rice — could be tasty.
Plenty of of us within the feedback of viral TikToks have identified onion boils are fairly just like a dish known as a dolma, which is mainly a stuffed onion. However the onion boils are fairly simplified, relying solely on butter and seasoning. However, as a result of onions are in through the boil recipe, you possibly can see of us mainly doing a real dolma recipe and going viral as effectively.
So it isn’t simply one onion recipe going viral — you would possibly even say this development has … “layers.”
