Notes
Caramelizing onions brings out their natural sweetness and depth of flavor, but it can take a long time.
Turning up the heat will only burn the onions before they caramelize. Give yourself enough time with this recipe to properly cook the onions. They don’t take a lot of monitoring, though, so you can easily make the dough and steam the potatoes at the same time.

- The thyme is not traditional but gives a nice flavor. You could also use chives or any dried spices of your choice that you like on potatoes.
- Schmaltz (rendered chicken fat) can be used in place of the butter in the filling and the dough to make it dairy-free.
- If you wish, sprinkle the knishes with sesame seeds or kosher salt before baking.
