Can I add a little water in the blender?

Yes, but only add a little, or your mixture will be too watery and you'll dilute the onion flavor.

Why can't the onion be boiled in water?

Community Answer

Because that is the difference between cooked and raw food. If you boil the onion you will kill all the enzymes and change the taste.
