Slice the onions thinly so they will caramelize quickly and evenly.
Cook the onions over low heat for a long time to get the best flavor. This will allow the onions to caramelize and develop a deep, rich flavor.
Use a good quality beef broth for the best flavor. You can also use chicken broth or vegetable broth if you prefer.
Add a little bit of Worcestershire sauce to the dip for a savory flavor boost.
Serve the dip with a variety of dippers, such as chips, crackers, vegetables, or bread.
