This Is How Onion Rings Were Made In The 18th Century

A few days ago, we found a video that show us how folks living in the 18th Century were able to make historically accurate fried chicken. With a taste for centuries-old munchies in our mind, we scrolled a little further back and found another recipe to accompany that delicious fried chicken: onion rings.

Jas. Townsend and Son, Inc., known for accurately recreating the 18th century lifestyle, shows us how to make onion rings the way they would back in the day.

Check out the delicious video as he whips up a batch right in the middle of the great outdoors. Too bad they didn’t have ranch dressing back then.

Or did they?
