More Food52 inspiration. Here, a recipe by Sarah Coates called New School French Onion Dip. Sarah recommends making what she calls “Onion Jam,” but I can also recommend two ways of caramelizing onions before you get started with this recipe:
1. The 15-minute method shown here: How to Caramelize Onions
2. The 24-hour Crock Pot Method shown here: Crock Pot Caramelized Onions
When I made Sarah’s recipes, we doubled the onions, and the jam took about 2 hours on medium to get nice and deep brown. We also used creme fraiche instead of sour cream, and we made our own fried shallots instead of buying them. Whichever way you go, the recipe is a real winner. We served it New Year’s Eve in front of the fire.
