Yield: 6 Servings
Ingredients: 4 large yellow onions 2 large sweet onions 6 Tablespoons butter 2 sprigs fresh thyme 2 Bay leaves And many more.
Instructions:
First of all. Slice the onions into strings of medium-size. They'll shrink down and you don't want them too thin. (Using a mandoline slicer makes this much easier).
Next, Melt the butter in a large (4-5 quart) soup pot or dutch oven over medium-low heat. Add the onions and use tongs to toss and coat them in the butter. Leave them uncovered as they cook.
And now, The onions will caramelize slowly, this takes patience. 6 large onions could take over an hour to fully caramelize. Stir the onions every 20 minutes or so until they've reached your desired size and color.
