The onion sandwich is a classic dish that is enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a simple sandwich to make, but it can be incredibly delicious when made with the right ingredients. The key to a great onion sandwich is to use fresh, high-quality onions. Sweet onions, such as Vidalia or Walla Walla, are a popular choice, but you can also use yellow or white onions. The onions should be thinly sliced and caramelized, which will bring out their natural sweetness. Another important ingredient is a good quality bread. A sturdy bread, such as sourdough or rye, will hold up well to the caramelized onions and cheese. The cheese should be a sharp cheddar or Gruyère, which will melt and provide a gooey texture. With these ingredients, you can create a delicious onion sandwich that will be sure to please everyone.

ONION SANDWICH



Onion Sandwich image

James Beard took this recipe from his colleagues Irma and Bill Rhode over 60 years ago, but there's something delicate, fresh and unfussy about the sandwich even now. There isn't much to it, so each component really matters: Slice the onions thinly and evenly, season well, and be gentle so you don't squish the bread as you press each sandwich shut. Rolling the edge of the sandwich in chopped parsley (or a mix of parsley and other fresh herbs), gives it a retro styling touch, but it's crucial for flavor, too.

STEAK SANDWICH WITH ONION RINGS AND CHEESE SAUCE



Steak Sandwich with Onion Rings and Cheese Sauce image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 20

One 6-ounce strip steak
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
Canola oil, for frying
2 large onions, cut into 3/4-inch-thick rings
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch cayenne
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 quart whole milk, cold
12 ounces fontina cheese, grated
2 shots Tabasco sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1 seeded semolina roll, cut in half
8 ounces fontina cheese, sliced
Jarred sliced banana peppers
Handful of arugula

Steps:

  • For the steak: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the steak on both sides with the garlic powder and salt. Place on the grill pan and cook for 5 to 7 minutes; flip and cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, until medium rare. Remove to a cutting board and set aside to rest. Slice the steak on the bias.
  • For the onion rings: Fit a heavy-bottomed pot with a deep-frying thermometer and fill with 2 to 3 inches of oil. Heat the oil to 365 degrees F. Meanwhile, prepare one bowl with buttermilk and a second with flour, salt and cayenne. In batches, place the cut onion rings into the buttermilk and then into the flour; repeat one more time. Carefully place the dipped rings into the preheated oil, being sure not to overcrowd the pan. Once golden on one side, flip to the other side and fry until golden brown all around. Remove with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel-lined plate. Season with salt.
  • For the mustard cheese sauce: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. Add the flour and whisk together completely to make a roux. Whisking continuously, gradually add the cold milk until completely combined and the sauce starts to thicken into a bechamel. Add the fontina, Tabasco and Dijon and whole-grain mustards. Season to taste, then remove from the heat.
  • To assemble the sandwich: Smear the cheese sauce on each side of the bread, top with sliced fontina, banana peppers, steak and arugula. Serve the onion rings on the side.

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 cup ancho chili powder
1/3 cup Spanish paprika
3 tablespoons ground dried oregano
3 tablespoons ground coriander
3 tablespoons dry mustard
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons chile de arbol
1 (6-pound) pork shoulder
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Chicken stock, if needed
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons honey
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
Salt
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons canola/olive oil blend
Water, if needed
1 cup coarsely chopped green onions
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 serrano chiles
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup pure olive oil
1 head purple cabbage, finely shredded
1 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/4 cup freshly chopped cilantro leaves
Hamburger buns, for serving

Steps:

  • For the Dry Rub: Add all the dry rub ingredients into a medium-sized bowl and stir until thoroughly combined.
  • For the pork shoulder: Place the pork, fat side up, on a clean baking sheet. Season the pork on all sides with salt and pepper then rub the dry rub all over the pork, pressing into the meat. Cover the pork with plastic wrap and place into the refrigerator for 7 hours.
  • Black Pepper Vinegar Sauce: Place all the ingredients into a blender and blend until emulsified. Add water if the sauce is too thick.
  • Green Onion Slaw: Place the green onions, vinegar, chiles, mayonnaise, salt, pepper and oil into a blender and blend until emulsified. Place the cabbage and red onions in a bowl, add the dressing and stir until combined. Fold in the cilantro and season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • For the pork shoulder: Remove the pork from the refrigerator 30 minutes prior to cooking. Following manufacturer's instructions and using lump charcoal and 1/2 cup drained wood chips for a smoker, or 1 cup for a barbecue, start fire and bring temperature of smoker or barbecue to 225 degrees F to 250 degrees F. Place the pork on the rack in smoker or barbecue. Cover and cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork reaches 165 degrees F. Turn pork every 45 minutes, about 6 hours total. If using the smoker, after 2 hours place the pork into the smoker pan and fill halfway with chicken stock. (This is to prevent the shoulder from drying out.) Add more charcoal, as needed, to maintain 225 degrees F to 250 degrees F and more wood drained wood chips (1/2 cup for the smoker or 1 cup for the barbecue with each addition) to maintain smoke level. Transfer pork to a clean rimmed baking sheet. Let stand until cool enough to handle. Shred into bite-size pieces. Mound on platter and toss with most of the Black Pepper Vinegar Sauce, reserving the rest for drizzling the bun. Pour any juice from the baking sheet over the pork.
  • For assembly: Drizzle the sauce on the top and bottom of the bun. Top the bottom bun with the meat, another drizzle of sauce, Green Onion Slaw and finish with the top of the bun.

NEW YORKER ONION SANDWICH



New Yorker Onion Sandwich image

This is from Graham Kerr, the man who said, "If you are out of salted nuts, the best appetiser is champagne!" This is from Volume 1 of his CBC Television Cookbooks. I also have Volume 3 and it was published in 1969, so this recipe is some kind of late 1960s cocktail party creation. Graham's recipe notes include: "At heart this is a dish that everyone enjoys except those with ulcers and those who have a romantic meeting with someone who isn't at the party." and, "Vodka based creations blend well." I use party rye-sized pumpernickel bread for the "brown bread rounds" he writes of; also, this recipe is for 2 people only so increase if you're serving a crowd (makes a great summer party treat) but don't make them too far ahead.

4 slices brown bread (or 2 slices if they are large)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
4 slices onions (VERY thin!)
salt and black pepper (I like LOTS)
2 slices tomatoes
minced parsley, to garnish

Steps:

  • Cut rounds from brown bread (big enough around to hold your tomato and onion slices), or use party rye-sized pumpernickel bread with crusts trimmed (and smaller tomato and onion slices).
  • Place onion slices on one slice of bread and season with salt and pepper.
  • Sandwich bread together.
  • Spread edges of bread with mayonnaise then roll the edges in minced parsley.
  • Garnish with a slice of tomato and sprig of parsley if you like.
  • (Actually, I like to just cram the tomato into the sandwich as well--).

MUSHROOM, ONION, AND SPINACH SANDWICH



Mushroom, Onion, and Spinach Sandwich image

We love this recipe. It's fast, easy, tastes good, and is healthy. I found it on one of my favorite blogs, CuisineNie (aka nieniedialogues.blogspot.com), but, since CuisineNie is now closed, I thought I'd put this recipe back out there. The amounts of onion, mushrooms, garlic, spinach, vinegar, and cheese are all approximate and should be altered according to your tastes. The recipe is pretty flexible; you can use different types of mustard, cheese, etc.. We like this served with canned Progresso lentil soup.

CARAMELISED ONION OPEN STEAK SANDWICH



Caramelised Onion Open Steak Sandwich image

From our local/state Sunday paper with a feature of Toastry Treats and the recipe is from Donna Hay - times are estimated.

Provided by ImPat

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons olive oil
20 g butter
1 brown onion (sliced)
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
4 (110 g) minute steaks (beef)
2 French baguettes (small halved lengthwise)
2 tablespoons horseradish cream
8 slices cheddar cheese
60 g rocket (baby leaves)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil and the butter in a non stick frying pan over low heat and add the onion and thyme and cook for 10 minutes or until onion is softened and then add the sugar and balsamic vinegar and cook for a further 8-10 minutes till caramilsed.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a non stick frying pan and cook the steaks for 1-2 minutes per side or until cooked to your liking (better I think to do a little under as it will go under the grill/broiler for a minute or two).
  • Spread half a tablespoon of the horseradish cream over each baguette half and top with the steak and cheese.
  • Place under a preheated hot grill/broiler and cook for 2-3 minutes or until cheese is melted and golden.
  • Top with caramelised onion and rocket, halve each half baquette to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right kind of onion: Yellow or white onions are the best choice for onion sandwiches. They have a sharp flavor that holds up well when cooked.
  • Slice the onions thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Cook the onions slowly: Low and slow is the best way to caramelize onions. This will bring out their natural sweetness and make them extra delicious.
  • Use a good quality cheese: A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will really elevate the flavor of your onion sandwich.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make an onion sandwich. Try adding different ingredients, such as bacon, mushrooms, or tomatoes, to find your perfect combination.

Conclusion:

The onion sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple, delicious, and filling. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a sandwich that will satisfy your hunger and taste buds. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give the onion sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed.
