Categories     Sandwich     Cheese     Onion     Appetizer     Sauté     Blue Cheese     Raisin     Winter     Bon Appétit     Kidney Friendly     Vegetarian     Pescatarian     Peanut Free     Soy Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 24 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large white onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped golden raisins
8 5 1/2x3x1/2-inch slices rustic country bread, such as walnut, pecan, or walnut-raisin
2 6-ounce wedges soft blue cheese (such as Cambazola, rind trimmed, or Gorgonzola dolcelatte), sliced
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook until just beginning to color, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Add sugar and cook until onions are deep golden brown and very soft, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in vinegar and raisins. Season caramelized onions to taste with salt and pepper. Cool. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  • Arrange 4 bread slices on work surface. Top with cheese, dividing equally. Top each with 1/4 cup caramelized onions. Top with remaining bread slices to form 4 sandwiches. Spread half of butter over tops of sandwiches. Heat heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches, buttered side down. Spread remaining butter over tops of bread. Partially cover and cook until bottoms are brown, about 3 minutes. Turn sandwiches over. Cook until second sides brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Cut each sandwich into 6 wedges.

Tips:

  • For the perfect caramelized onions, cook them slowly and patiently over low heat. This will allow them to develop a deep, golden-brown color and a sweet, slightly tangy flavor.
  • If you don't have any white wine on hand, you can substitute chicken broth or water. However, the white wine will add a nice depth of flavor to the caramelized onions.
  • Be sure to use a good quality blue cheese for this recipe. A sharp, pungent blue cheese will give the squares the best flavor.
  • If you don't have any fresh thyme on hand, you can use dried thyme. Just be sure to use half the amount, as dried thyme is more concentrated.
  • Serve the blue cheese and caramelized onion squares warm, as an appetizer or main course.

Conclusion:

These blue cheese and caramelized onion squares are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The combination of sweet caramelized onions, sharp blue cheese, and flaky puff pastry is sure to please everyone at your table. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting recipe, give these squares a try. You won't be disappointed!
