Provided by á-28785

Number Of Ingredients 14

For the Special:
Olive Oil
3 tablespoons Sweet Butter
2 pounds Cipolline Onions (peeled and roots trimmed)
1 tablespoon Sugar
Salt
freshly cracked Black Pepper
1/4 cup fresh Thyme leaves

1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
For the Spectacular:
White Truffles (shaved and very finely grated)

Steps:

  • Heat a large skillet oven medium-high with a few tablespoons of olive oil. Add onions, and season with salt. Sprinkle the onions all over with sugar. Cook, undisturbed for one minute, and then add the butter, continuing to cook until the onions begin to develop deep caramelization. Flip the onions, and cook for one minute, and then add the thyme, followed by the sherry. Cook for 10 minutes or until onions are lightly deeply caramelized and. Remove from heat and stir in cream. Adjust seasoning to taste. For the Special: Stir in the Robiolina and Parmigiano-Reggiano off of the heat. For the Spectacular: Shave truffles over the onions, and then sprinkle the truffles with salt. Helpful Tips: 1. You can use pearl or even frozen pearl onions instead of Cipolline. 2. Do two batches so there's no overcrowding in the pan, and all the onions have the nice dark color on the bottom. 3. You could also use Marscapone, ricotta, or even cream cheese instead of Robiolina cheese.

Yield Makes about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lb cipolline or small (1 1/2-inch) white boiling onions, left unpeeled
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
1 cup dry red wine
1 cup red-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
10 whole black peppercorns
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf

  • Bring sugar and water to a boil in a 3-quart heavy saucepan over moderate heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Boil, without stirring, washing down any sugar crystals on side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water, until syrup turns pale golden.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup hot water
2 lbs cipollini onions
1 tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons pine nuts
