Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 # pearl onions (see note)
2 tbs butter
1 c +/- chicken stock (or veg stock)
Dash each salt & pepper
1 tsp sugar

Steps:

  • If using fresh pearl onions, blanch in boiling water for one minute. Drain and rinse in cold water to stop cooking. Slice off the ends and slip off the outer skins. If using frozen pearl onions, defrost and drain them before the next step. Before braising, saute' the onions on a single layer in butter until lightly browned. Add stock, salt & pepper, and sugar. Cover and simmer slowly about 25 minutes, until tender. Uncover and boil off the excess liquid. You may want to stir in another tbs or two of butter.
