Notes
- White onions are specifically recommended for their milder, cleaner flavor compared to yellow onions when used raw
- For the best texture, make sure to dice the onions very finely
- The sauce tastes even better on the second day as flavors continue to develop
- If the sauce seems too thick, add a small splash of lemon juice or a teaspoon of water
- For a richer flavor, add a few drops of Worcestershire sauce
