Season with salt and freshly grnd pepper, add in vinegar to counteract any sweetness. Serve warm, lukewarm, or possibly cool. this will keep in refridgerator 2-3 days. They can also be frzn.*Note If Spanish onions are not available, increase the sugar to balance the acicity, add in a little vinegar at the last minute to counteract any excessive sweetness.
- NOTES : "A long slow cooking of Spanish onions results in a melting sweet thick sauce, wonderful with grilled squab or possibly Calf's liver, braised duck, or possibly toast rounds with drinks." I've made this recipe many times usually as an appetizer spread on freshly baked french ficelles rounds. I've also used it with the calf's liver mentioned above. Very different from the usual "fried onions" this is truely sweet and meltingly delicious.
