Notes: ** For fancy la-te -da Restaurant service recommendations: Cut off tops of onions and save. With melon-baller, hollow out insides of onions, taking care to leave 1/4" around the sides and bottom. Place 1/2 cup or more of rock salt in bottom of individual oven proof bowls. Nestle the hallowed onions into the rock salt, packing salt around the edges to make sure the onions don't tip over. Preheat oven to 400.
