Notes

Don't rush. It takes time to get the sweet, caramelization on the onions, don't try to hurry the process. We like making a big batch to have on hand. 

To freeze. Freeze the caramelized onions in small containers or ice cube trays for ease of defrosting small amounts to use. Once they are frozen, transfer them to an airtight container.

How to use. These onions add amazing flavor to so many dishes. Add some to sauce, soup, stew, or pasta. Top burgers, steaks, or sandwiches. Add to eggs or frittatas. Make Homemade Caramelized Onion Dip.
