SHERRY VINEGAR-GLAZED ONIONS



Sherry Vinegar-Glazed Onions image

Traditional creamed onions and buttery glazed onions are perfectly nice, but the sparky tang of vinegar makes this version of the classic much more appealing. The sweet-and-sour flavors are a great foil for the rich, starchy dishes on a Thanksgiving table. Any leftovers can be chopped up to make a lively addition to winter stews and chunky soups.

Provided by Julia Moskin

Categories     side dish

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons neutral oil, like canola or grapeseed
1 pound small peeled onions, about 1 inch in diameter, red or white or a combination (frozen onions are fine)
1/2 cup sherry vinegar or apple cider vinegar
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Honey or maple syrup to taste
Finely minced parsley, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a wide skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium heat until bubbling. Add onions and sauté over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, gently rolling the onions about so they will brown as evenly as possible.
  • Pour in vinegar and 1/4 cup water. Season with salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cover and simmer very gently until onions are perfectly tender but retain their shape. Start testing with a thin sharp knife after 15 minutes; depending on size, the onions may cook in 15 to 25 minutes. (Frozen onions will cook faster.) Taste one to make sure it is completely tender all the way through; do not undercook.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer onions to a serving bowl. (Onions may be prepared up to this point 2 days ahead. Reserve onions and cooking liquid separately. Reheat onions in reserved liquid, adding water as needed, then transfer them to a bowl.)
  • Raise heat and boil liquid to reduce it to a thick glaze. Taste and add salt, pepper and sweetener to taste. Stir in parsley and serve hot or warm.

Tips:

  • Choose the right onions: Smaller onions, such as pearl onions or shallots, work best for this recipe as they cook more evenly and hold their shape better than larger onions.
  • Slice the onions evenly: This will help them cook evenly, so use a sharp knife and cut the onions into uniform slices.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the onions, make sure they are in a single layer in the pan so that they can caramelize properly.
  • Be patient: Caramelizing onions takes time, so don't rush the process. Cook them over low heat until they are golden brown and slightly softened.
  • Use a good quality balsamic vinegar: Balsamic vinegar adds a sweet and tangy flavor to the onions, so use a good quality vinegar that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Serve the onions immediately: Glazed onions are best served immediately after cooking, while they are still warm and slightly crispy.

Conclusion:

Glazed onions are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be served with a variety of different dishes. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences by adjusting the amount of balsamic vinegar, honey, and herbs that you use. So next time you're looking for an easy and impressive side dish, give these glazed onions a try!
