Ray - but then again, why not onion wine? If you've ever slowly fried
onions you'll notice that they become caramelized - which is sugar - which
is what ferments - which is what creates alcohol. Onions are, in essence,
very sweet vegetables and could make good wine. Perhaps the negative view
they always receive - because they are savoury as opposed to sweet in
nature - stops me from even trying them for wine - but many have and maybe I
might one day! Unfortunately, I cannot comment at present.
