Instructions
- Using a sharp knife or a food processor fitted with the slicing blade to thinly slice the onions.☞ TESTER TIP: If you have a food processor, avail yourself of it. No tears.
- In your largest heavy-bottomed pot over low heat, warm the oil. Dump in the onions and salt and stir to combine.
- Cover the pot until the onions begin softening, lifting the lid and stirring every 5 minutes, at least 30 minutes.
- Uncover and cook the onions, stirring every 20 to 30 minutes, for about 6 hours. The onions will be golden, much smaller in volume, and soft.
- Increase the heat to medium and cook the onions, being careful to stir every 5 minutes to prevent burning, until dark golden brown and very, very soft, 30 to 40 minutes more. Remove from the heat and let the onions cool completely.
- Divvy the onions into 1⁄4-cup portions in either resealable bags or small containers with tightly fitted lids. Store in the freezer to have on hand at all times!
