Best 6 Cheese Caramelized Onion And Herb Rugelach Recipes

CARAMELIZED ONION GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with the thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are browned and tender, about 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of the Dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon water to coat the onions. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat a griddle over medium heat.
• Buzz the Cheddar, Gruyere, Robiola, prosecco, parsley, garlic and remaining 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard in a food processor until combined but still chunky and spreadable. Evenly spread the cheese mixture over one side of each slice of bread. Top 2 slices with the onion mixture and then sandwich the onions with the other 2 slices, cheese-side in. Spread the remaining butter on the outside of each sandwich and season with salt and pepper. Griddle the sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown on the first side, about 5 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the exteriors are crispy, about 5 minutes more.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND GOAT CHEESE TARTS

Steps:

• In a large heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat, add the oil and butter. When the butter is melted, add the onions, sugar, and salt, to taste. Cook until the onions begin to brown. Adjust the heat to low and cook slowly, turning often, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the onions from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a bowl combine the goat cheese, egg, cream, and thyme. Pour the mixture into a small resealable plastic food storage bag. Snip off a corner of the bag to use it for piping.
• Lay the pie crusts out flat on a clean surface and with a 2 1/2-inch round cutter cut out 12 circles from each crust. Press them into the cups of the mini-muffin tin. Fill each cup 1/2 way with the cooled onions. Pipe the cheese mixture on top of the onions, filling the cups. Bake the tarts until the filling is set, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let the tarts cool slightly, and then remove them from the muffin tin and serve.

QUICHE WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS, CREAM CHEESE AND HERBS

Steps:

• Make the Pastry Shell.
• Combine the flour and salt in a medium bowl. Add the pieces of butter and toss to coat with flour. With a fork or pastry cutter, blend the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like coarse meal. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons cold water over the mixture and quickly stir with a fork just until a dough forms. Use the last tablespoon of water only if necessary. Gather up the dough with your hands and shape it into a disc. Cover the dough with plastic and chill for one to two hours.
• Preheat an oven to 475° F (240° C). On a floured pastry cloth, roll out the dough into a large circle and fit into a pie or tart pan. Trim and shape the edges of the pastry as desired. Prick the pastry all over with a fork and bake in the hot oven for about 7 to 8 minutes, just until the dough starts to set. Remove the shell from the oven and set aside.
• Prepare the Filling.
• Heat the olive oil in a skillet and add the onions. Add a pinch each of salt, pepper and sugar. Saute the onions over medium-low heat until tender and caramelized, about 20 to 30 minutes. Stir in the parsley and chives and transfer the onions to a pre-baked pie shell. Break the cream cheese into small bits and scatter it over the onion mixture. (Also add any chopped meat, if using.).
• Bake the Quiche.
• Preheat the oven to ° F (190° C). In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with a fork, then beat in the milk, cream and seasoning. Pour the egg mixture into the pie shell and place in the oven. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, or until set and nicely colored. Serve warm.
