Caramelized Onions

One of my absolute favorite ingredients. Use them to top salads, veggie burgers, sandwiches, puree them into sauces or soups, or use them in innumerable other delicious ways.

Caramelized Onions

-Thinly slice 3 medium onions – any variety.
-Heat a large skillet over medium heat, and add 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil or butter. Add the onions. Stir to coat in the oil or butter. Stir often (every 3-5 minutes) until the onions soften and brown. This process can take 45 minutes to one hour. The key is to use low heat and cook slowly. During cooking, you may need to add 1-2 more tbsp on butter or oil to prevent the onions from sticking. When then onions are golden in color, they are ready.
