Why on earth didn't he show how to Plat onions instead of that bit of
rope.
If you can't be bothered with all that work then just get a stocking;
or one leg from a pair of tights; and fill that with your onions when
they are dry and hang that up, they store wll that way.

Thats the way (tights/stockings) my family have done it since WW2, *quick
and easy. Why make it complicated?
I know some people like using traditional methods in all persuits and wont
let go and I have respect for them.
But for most of us the easiest way has to be the most convenient.

I know of nothing easier than making a platt of onions if you want
something that looks good over the Aga, though I'd have thought that
the heat would be to much for them.
