This is an excellent, easily prepared side dish of onions in a wine-flavored sauce. Prepare a mix of 40 onions: fresh shallots and pearl onions, par boiled for 1 minute and peeled and the bottom 2 inches of scallions. Be sure to leave the roots on so they hold together. This is really nice to make for the fall, winter and spring holidays. I like to dress with the tops of the chopped green scallions. The basil and thyme amounts used are for dried. If you are lucky and have fresh, use them and double the amounts called for.

Steps:
- Place the onions in a deep skillet or sauce pan with the oil, vinegar, wine, bay leaves, basil, thyme, salt, pepper and enough water to barley cover. Bring to a simmer and cook over low heat for 20 minutes.
- Stir in the the saffron and tomato paste and cook for another 20 minutes.
- Add the dried fruit and cook for yet another 20 minutes.
- Serve in a large covered casserole topped with the parsley and chopped green scallions.
- This is a nice dish to make when invited to a friends house and asked to bring a dish. Arrive with it at room temp, with the chopped scallion tops and parsley wrapped in a damp paper towel. Reheat at 350 for 20 minutes when their oven is free. It does not need to be served hot, just warm enough so the olive oil is still nicely melded. Add the chopped scallions tops and parsley just before serving.
