Its that time of year.

Cure 'em in the shade and then store them in the garage in a basket or hang them up.

Dry basement for me

I make sure they are dried well, tops for sure. I then tie group together and hang in our basement or our heated garage. Your way ahead of me. I won't have onions to pull until August and the last group in September or later.

used to hang them in a cool room...a mesh bag works to but harder to see any bad ones.

Trash can.You asked.

Braid and hang but southern onions just don't store so use them up is the rule. We get no more than a few weeks to a couple months on onions.

Hang in the basement or garage or put on wire racks so the air gets around them.the best storing onions ive found are Patterson if dried and stored right they last 10 months or better.

Hang in the cool dry if you have a place that is cool and dry. Lacking that, cut up and freeze. They still work perfectly stir fried or in any other recipe that calls for cooked onions.

Thank you for the help !

We were hanging lots of stuff but it was messy and got in the way. I made these cedar boxes and they have been working well. These are shallots and garlic still from last year. Potatoes we just finished

Dicing up and freezing has become our preferred way. Freeze the cut up pieces spread out on a cookie sheet first, then put in freezer bags. That way they don't clump together, and its easy to grab a handful and put in soup or whatever.

Mama would do her trinity like that.

I store mine at Sam's Club. They can grow them and keep them fresh much cheaper and better than I can.

My wife puts them in a cast iron frying pan with country fried steak and gravy.

Depends on the onion. Your really sweet varieties, like a Vidalia, they need to be just store them hanging up in a dry basement. My wife braids them and stores them hanging from nails in the floor joists.

I cure then in the shade for a couple days then braid the tops together and hang them up in an u used, unheated room

There is no better onion than a Vidalia. I didn't see any at Sam's Club this year.

Gary last year I pulled a couple once they started dieing down, threw them on a bench, sun rain and Everything thing else mother nature could throw at them, they looked a little ruff but late fall I was able to skin them and cut up for table fare. Not say that's how I would store them but it shows how hearty they are if air can get to them.
