Notes
- Tips:
- To peel fresh pearl onions, trim the root ends of the onions. Blanch the onions in boiling water for about 30 seconds and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Pinch each onion at its stem and it should pop right out of the skin.
- Be careful not to overcook the onions or they will become mushy in texture.
