Hi, I have been trying (without much success) to make a Outback Steakhouse style bloomin' onion. I have a slicer which cuts teh onion perfectly but my problem is getting it to stay flowered. I read on the side of the slicer box that you should soak it in ice water and then boil it, but all this seems to do is saturate it to the point that its so floppy it just lies on the plate like a dead jellyfish. If I do not soak it in ice water, the petals snap and the ones that dont snap keep slowly lifting back up.

Do any of you experts have a tried and tested method for maing these things properly?

Thanks for any help,

Pete.
