Description
Caramelized onions are simply onions that are cooked for an extended period of time with a bit of fat. Caramelised onions are a wonderful accompaniment to cold meats, pates and terrines, and make a great base for savoury tarts. They're very easy to make at home - you simply cook the onions slowly to caramelise their natural sugars. Caramelizing onions at home is easy to do. You just need a few onions, a pat of butter or some olive oil, a pan, and some time. To make caramelised onions at home, heat oil in a large frypan over low heat. Add the onions and a good pinch of salt and cook very slowly for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent them from catching. When onions are softened and tinged golden, add sugar and balsamic - this will start the caramelisation process. Cook onion over low heat for a further 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sticky and caramelised.
