PICKLED CIPOLLINI ONIONS IN SHERRY



Pickled Cipollini Onions in Sherry image

I can find Cipollini onions at Trader Joes.Cooking Light, SEPTEMBER 2003 "Serve these traditional English-style sweet-sour-spicy pickled onions as a first course with cheese, sliced or chopped in a salad, or thinly sliced and heated with a ribeye steak. Boiling the onions in salted water keeps them crisp. Let them sit a month to absorb the subtleties of the pickling liquid. Keep the spices whole to prevent clouding and sediment."

Time 35m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

15 cipollini onions
Extra-virgin olive oil
About 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup honey
1/2 bunch thyme, leaves removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Add the onions to a large bowl, cover with hot water and allow to sit for about 5 minutes. This is to help make peeling the onions much easier. Strain onions and peel.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup oil, vinegar, honey, thyme, salt and pepper until combined. Put the onions in a large bowl, pour the dressing over them and toss well to coat.
  • In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add about 2 tablespoons olive oil and heat. Once hot, add the onions. Next place the saute pan into the preheated oven and roast for 18 to 20 minutes until the onions are soft and slightly caramelized.
