How I saute onions
11/8/2011 12:03:43 PM
I like to throw a bit of butter in a pan, melt the butter, toss in the onions, let them saute for a bit. And then I'll put a little drizzle of soy sauce in the pan. Butter+soy sauce is always delicious....

I throw a lid on to speed things up.

Don't forget the Sherry.

I do the same but use bourbon instead of the soy sauce. Ill saute on low for about 10-15 minutes. I flambe until the fire subsides and serve.

I don't use any oil. Just a non-stick fry pan. I use a cover on it until the onions are very soft and almost done (in texture). Then, I take off the lid, let the liquid vaporize, and let the onions caramelize a bit. I do not stir them much, as the onions will not caramelize if you disturb them. I take them off after a light brown color. It takes about 30 minutes the way I do it.
I caramelize 6-8 large onions at a time in a 16" pan... refrigerate some and freeze some.
Harris Teeter has had very large sized sweet onions from Peru the last couple of weeks that were on sale for $.99/lb. They are very very good... comparable to Vidalias in the spring. Tastes great on just about everything.

Sauted onions for steaks get a healthy dose of werchstershire sauce.

Apparently you meant to say "How I sweat onions".

Olive oil, salt....
Finely diced and then salted to draw out some moisture (about 2-3 minuets sitting out with salt on them, just barely pulling moisture at this point)
Heat olive oil over high heat for about 12-13 seconds then reduce heat to medium-low.
Put in onions as soon as heat is dropped and let it cook until semi-transparent and soft.

On rare occasions, I'll use a toasted sesame oil I have. Imparts some good flavor

i caramelize onions with whole butter and a squeeze of bacon fat and deglaze the pan with sherry/marsala/madeira. salt and pepper is a must.
