How I do Caramelized Onions.....

I will put caramelized onions on ANYTHING! They will make almost any dish taste wickedly insane. I have read a lot of different methods for making caramelized onions, but this is the way I make them. The trick is to cook them slow and not rush them. They aren't hard to make either. I know when you mention caramelized onions to some people, they break out in a cold sweat. It may take a while ( a good hour or so ) but the end result is so worth it.

Caramelized Onions

5 or 6 small yellow onions, sliced
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Heat the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring for 15-20 minutes until very soft. Add sugar and salt. Lower heat to low and continue to cook for 40 minutes until golden, stirring ocassionally. Stir in the vinegar and blend well. Yeah....that is pretty much it! Enjoy!!
