This is from the TOH F/M 04 issue. This is such a versital recipe. It goes from picnic table to dining room table. I used low sodium soup and used 6 grain bread instead of French bread. I halved the recipe, for 2 of us, and used it as a side dish to Beef Burgundy.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Onions: Select medium-sized yellow or white onions for even cooking and a slightly sweet flavor.
  • Prepare the Onions Properly: Peel and halve the onions, leaving the root end intact to hold the layers together during baking.
  • Use Good Quality Butter: Unsalted butter is recommended for a richer and more flavorful result.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the salt and pepper. Season the onions well to enhance their natural sweetness.
  • Roast at High Temperature: A high oven temperature helps caramelize the onions and develop a golden-brown crust.
  • Keep an Eye on the Onions: Check the onions halfway through the baking time to ensure they are browning evenly. Adjust the position of the baking dish if needed.
  • Let the Onions Cool Slightly: Allow the onions to cool for a few minutes before serving to prevent them from falling apart.
