For extra crispy onion rings, try chilling the batter for 30 minutes before frying. If you don't have onion salt, you can substitute with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of onion powder. To keep the onion rings warm while frying in batches, place the drained rings in a preheated oven at 200°F (95°C). Experiment with different seasonings in the batter, such as garlic powder, smoked paprika, or cayenne pepper, for a unique flavor twist.
