Place a whole, raw, unpeeled Vidalia
Onion in the refrigerator and chill for approximately an hour before serving, or
peel and cut into slices and place in a bowl of ice water for approximately 30
minutes and then drain on paper towels.
Either of these methods will help bring out a sweeter flavor when eating raw
Vidalia's.
