Caramelized Thanksgiving Onions image

For years, I've prepared "Creamed Onions" as a side dish for traditional holiday meals. (That recipe is also posted.) This recipe is for a different method of preparing onions, and they're equally tasty. The onions here are caramelized, and the presentation is very nice when they are plated. Note: Be sure to use boiling onions, not the little pearl onions.

These onions were a waste of time. They were bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my onions didn't caramelize. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These onions were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.
