CARAMELIZED THANKSGIVING ONIONS
For years, I've prepared "Creamed Onions" as a side dish for traditional holiday meals. (That recipe is also posted.) This recipe is for a different method of preparing onions, and they're equally tasty. The onions here are caramelized, and the presentation is very nice when they are plated. Note: Be sure to use boiling onions, not the little pearl onions.
