Mustard Beer Battered Onion Rings
These mustard beer battered onion rings are made with sweet Vidalia onions dipped in a flavor-packed mustard beer batter. If you have a deep fryer or heavy pan, these are easy to make and can be ready in 20 minutes, depending on how many batches you make.
My Dad loved these onion rings. My husband loves these onion rings. I love these onion rings. If you love onion rings, this one’s for you!

These onion rings are delicious with Blooming Onion Sauce. I also love to dip them in ranch dressing. And yes, some people like them with ketchup! Whatever your preference, serve some sauces on the side and enjoy these crispy sweet, melt-in-your-mouth onion rings.

Welcome to Foodie de Froid!
If you love real food, take pleasure in eating, and strive for mouth-watering flavor, you have come to the right place. Here the star of the show IS the food, presenting it in a way that makes it shine.
Tasting Experiences
We feature many appetizers and individual-sized recipes as a purposeful way to experience and share food.
Our mouth reacts to flavors in a transitional way. That first taste creates an exciting experience with the food’s intense flavors, textures, and visual appeal. Yet after the first few bites, our mouths and minds adjust, and that experience deadens.
Thus, the tasting experience! We served 14 consecutive courses at my last tasting party. Each was purposely selected to bring new flavors, textures, and presentations, creating surprises and wow moments throughout the night.
The Recipes
The recipes are documented with ingredients we love. Yet my greatest hope is to have you understand why the recipes work and eventually make them into your personal version using your favorite ingredients and presentations.
