FirstEvent-BSIOnion

Thanks for Michelle to give me an option to present this week's BSI ingredient. BSI stands for Blogger Secret Ingredient. This was started by Beth. 

Week #89 (2nd Aug to 8th Aug) BSI event is hosted by Debbi

This is a kind of Iron-Chef-style recipe challenge, where
a. Each week a new host picks an ingredient
b. Readers can submit a recipe.
c. The contest starts on a Monday, and recipes need to be submitted by Sunday night of that week.
d. Then the next day the host chooses a winner and picks someone to host new week's contest.

Jac keeps update of all events in her blog, and I guess I am late to host this event.

BSI Ingredient for Week #88 & Week #89 is Onion.

Onions are available thro' out the world in different colours. In India it is available in Red and White, but when I visited Paris in this April I was surprised to see green onion.

Send your recipes to me latest by July 31st 10pm at hemasrini dot 2007 at gmail dot com. You can either link to a blog post or send the entire recipe by an email - please send photos if you have got them.

NOTE: once you've sent your recipe, please post a comment on my blog, just to double-check that I received it. At this time, odds are pretty good for an entry to win!



The winner will receive "Aachi Chilli Powder" from India.

If you are considering hosting, please let me know in your email. Prizes are entirely the discretion of each week's host. Be forewarned - if you participate, I may send an email to hit you up to host next week's round (it's easy, and you'll meet and be viewed by all kinds of foodbloggers)


To recap -


Hosts:
