Serve these delicate cooked onions as a side or as a pizza topping. Or toss them

with pasta, shredded Asiago cheese, and fresh herbs. They also make a fantastic

addition to risotto. Use the skimmed onion-scented butter to flavor stocks or

stews, or to spread over toasted slices of French or Italian bread. To ensure

maximum flavor, cook the onions the full 24 hours.

 

ChupaNote: this is a no-watch version of onion confit (onions slow cooked in

butter). Add your favorite flavor bouillon cube (crushed) for salt/seasoning and

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes for some heat.
