CIPOLLINE IN AGRODOLCE

I found this recipe for my Italian FIL. He said he'd never heard of them but his mother DID make "jubilee onions." I figure if calamari = galama, sopressata - soopesage, cavatelli = gavadeel, then cipollini = jubilee. This is a very simple, straightforward recipe as are many Italian recipes.

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 tablespoons butter
2 lbs peeled cipolline onions
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2-1 cup water (maybe more)
3 drops fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Heat the butter in a pan large enough to hold the onions.
  • Cook the onions in the butter for a few minutes while stirring.
  • Sprinkle on the sugar, the vinegar and enough water to barely cover the onions and bring to a boil.
  • Simmer until the liquid is completely gone, stirring occasionally, 15-20 minutes, watching carefully to avoid scorching. (The onions will become glazed & caramelized).

Time 9h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ cups brown sugar
1 cup soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 (2 pound) venison tenderloin
½ pound hickory-smoked bacon
toothpicks
¼ (5 pound) white sugar

Steps:

  • Mix brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic, and Worcestershire together in a bowl until sugar is dissolved. Place tenderloin into a container with a lid or zip-top bag and pour the marinade over. Cover and marinate for at least 8 hours, to overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Remove tenderloin and discard marinade. Wrap a slice of bacon around the tenderloin, starting at one end, and secure it with a toothpick. Continue wrapping bacon around the loin until it is covered and secured with toothpicks. Place on a broiler pan on the center rack of the oven.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until slightly pink in the center, 35 to 40 minutes for medium-rare. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with white sugar, and turn on the oven's broiler.
  • Broil in the preheated oven until bacon is crisp, about 5 minutes, turning once and watching closely so it doesn't burn. Remove from the oven and place on a cutting board. Let stand for 10 minutes. Slice with a knife between each strip of bacon so there are several pieces.

VENISON LOIN WITH CIPOLLINI AGRODOLCE



Venison Loin with Cipollini Agrodolce image

Categories     Side     Venison     Simmer     Boil

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound cipollini onions
2 cups red wine
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
3 tablespoons sugar
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 (4-ounce) portions venison loin (also called medallions)

Steps:

  • Peel the onions and trim the tops, keeping the root end intact. Combine the onions, wine, vinegar, and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to a boil and add a pinch of salt. Decrease the heat to maintain a brisk simmer and cook until the onions are tender and the liquid has reduced to a syrup, about 15 minutes. Remember that the agrodolce will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • Heat the olive oil in 1 large or 2 medium sauté pans over high heat. Season the loin pieces with salt and pepper and sear, no more than 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes or so.
  • Cut each loin in half horizontally. Lean the halves against each other at opposing angles. Spoon the agrodolce next to the meats and drizzle some over the top. Serve immediately.
