If I understand what you're referring to, I think a regular onion or wood
should do it.
If you want the rings to be so thin that they aren't separately visible to
the eye you can just scale the normal large so that the normal pattern range
from 0 in the center to 1 at the edge. Average two of these normals. They
must be exactly the same except that the one should be inverted. If you use
this method you don't need large resolutions to get nice results.
