- Select Your Onions: Choose medium to large onions, preferably sweet varieties like Vidalia or Walla Walla, as they caramelize beautifully.
- Prepare the Onions: Peel the onions and slice them into even, thick rings or half-moons. The shape can influence how they cook, with rings being perfect for even caramelization.
- Slow Cook to Perfection: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add a touch of olive oil or butter, then place your onions in the pan. The trick is in the slow cooking—cover with a lid and let them gently caramelize, stirring occasionally to ensure they don’t stick or burn.
This process might take a bit of time, but patience is key. The onions are ready when they turn a rich golden color and have a tender, almost buttery texture.
