Italian Sweet and Sour Onions Recipe

Sweet and sour baby onions are a traditional side dish from Emilia Romagna in northern-central Italy. An extremely simple recipe, to savour the sophisticated flavours of the lands where balsamic vinegar originates. They are a great side to meat dishes and pair beautifully with cheese. Can be fun to add to sandwiches, say blue cheese and ham? Serve chilled or warm.

Ingredients

  • 1 lb peeled baby onions

  • 2 tbsp butter

  • 2 tbsp sugar

  • 3 tbsp water

  • 3 tbsp white condiment by Giusti

  • A few branches of thyme

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. In a saucepan heat sugar, water and butter. Once butter is melted add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Add the vinegar, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Stir occasionally and add the thyme. Cook for another 15 minutes or until brown.

    Buon appetito!
