    Mastering the Art of French Cooking

    List of Ingredients





    For 18 to 24 peeled white onions about 1 inch in diameter:
    1/2 tablespoons butter
    1/2 tablespoons oil
    A 9- to 10-inch enameled skillet
    1/2 cup of brown stock, canned beef bouillon, dry white wine, red wine or water
    Salt and pepper to taste
    A medium herb bouquet: 3 parsley springs, 1/2 bay leaf, and 1/4 teaspoon thyme tied in cheesecloth

    Recipe




    When the butter and oil are bubbling the skillet, add the onions and sauté over moderate heat for about 10 minutes, rolling the onions about so they will brown as evenly as possible. Be careful not to break their skins. You cannot expect to brown them uniformly.

    Pour in the liquid, season to taste, and add the herb bouquet. Cover and simmer slowly for 40 to 50 minutes until the onions are perfectly tender but retain their shape, and the liquid has evaporated. Remove the herb bouquet. Serve them as they are.
