Caramelised onions are a versatile and flavorful addition to many dishes, from burgers and steaks to soups and pizzas. By cooking onions slowly in a mix of olive oil, brown sugar, vinegar, and fresh thyme, you can bring out their natural sweetness and create a rich, savory topping or ingredient.
- Use high-quality olive oil to enhance the flavor of the onions.
- For best results, use a heavy-bottomed skillet to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
- Slice the onions evenly to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Be patient; caramelizing onions takes time, and rushing the process can lead to uneven cooking or burning.
- Stir the onions occasionally to prevent sticking and to ensure even caramelization.
Caramelizing onions is a simple but rewarding process that adds depth and complexity to many recipes. By following these steps and tips, you'll be able to create beautifully caramelized onions that will enhance any dish they're added to.
