Ingredients
- 5 pieces applewood smoked bacon cut into small pieces
- 2 lbs sweet onions cut in half and sliced thin
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large, heavy pot over medium heat (I used my dutch oven) and cook the bacon until lightly browned. Remove bacon, leaving the fat in the pot. Drain on paper towels. When cool, chop into small bits.
- Add the sliced onions to the pot. Allow to cook over medium heat until browned and caramelized, stirring frequently. This takes about 45 minutes.
- Return bacon to the onions and add in the balsamic vinegar and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring frequently another 15 or so minutes. At this point the mixture should be thick and caramelized.
- Allow to cool and store in glass jars in the refrigerator. I got 2 Mason jars full of jam from this recipe. You could easily double it if need be.
- For the appetizer toast a sliced baguette in the oven (400˚ F. for about 10 minutes). Spread the toasted bread with softened goat cheese and top with the jam. Sprinkle with fresh thyme.
