Dr. Rob’s Pearl Onion Recipe
Here’s a delicious recipe that’s great for that special Holiday Dinner or any day of the year!
Pearl Onions – Creamed:
Ingredients:
- Pearl Onions–5 bags of pearl onions
- 1-2 sticks butter
- 2 bay leaves
- 1-2 tsp. Thyme
- 2-4 chicken bouillon cubes
- 1-2 cups of Riesling or sweet white wine
- cup heavy cream
- salt and/or pepper to taste
Directions:
Blanche onions for 3-5 minutes in boiling water, dump immediately into ice water then clip off ends of onions and peel off skin. In large skillet melt 1-2 sticks salted butter and then add bay leaves, thyme, chicken boullion cubes and mix in skillet over medium heat. Sautee onions in mixture for 30 minutes with 1-2 cups of riesling or sweet white wine, add crack pepper. Final preparation; reduce liquid until scant sauce remaining, add 1 cup of heavy cream and simmer for 5 minutes then serve.
**Be careful that you don’t cook it higher or longer than simmer because the cream will separate. You may adjust the amount of onions and butter as needed. Bon apetit!
