SWEET AND SOUR PEARL ONIONS WITH BALSAMIC VINEGAR
I have not made this version, but my Italian mother made a very similar dish when I a child. It was the only way I would eat onions. It was one of those things she just whipped together, and I never learned how. I hope this will duplicate my childhood memories of it. It is called Cipolline in Agrodolce in Italian.
