ONION JAM



Onion Jam image

Provided by Alex Guarnaschelli

Time 40m

Yield about 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup vegetable or canola oil
4 large red onions, halved, peeled, and cut into thin (1/4-inch) slices
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups dry red wine
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
Juice and a few grates of zest from 1 lemon, optional

Steps:

  • In a medium saute pan, heat the oil until it begins to smoke lightly. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cook until the onions give up their liquid, 3 to 5 minutes, and then add the red wine. Lower the heat and cook the onions until the wine reduces almost completely. Leave on low heat while you prepare the gastrique.
  • In a separate small pan, heat the honey until it begins to bubble and froth. Cook until the honey turns a light caramel color, an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Add the red wine vinegar, simmer for a few minutes on low heat, and then shut off the heat. Pour the honey mixture over the onions and continue cooking them over low heat until all of the juice is absorbed and the onions are a jam-like consistency, 10 to 15 minutes. If you desire, add lemon juice and zest at this point. Taste for seasoning and transfer to a bowl to cool until ready to serve.

ONION JAM



Onion Jam image

A family favorite. Expect a few wrinkled noses maybe at the title, but result is worth the effort. Maybe not for beginning cooks since there's a couple potentially tricky steps. Serve a cup of jam over a bar of cream cheese with crackers, or as a spread for meat sandwiches. Keep in refrigerator in covered container for up to two weeks.

Tips:

  • Choose the right onions: Red onions are the best choice for this jelly because they have a less pungent flavor than other types of onions.
  • Slice the onions thinly: This will help them cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a large pot: The onions will release a lot of liquid as they cook, so it's important to use a pot that's large enough to accommodate them.
  • Cook the onions over low heat: This will help to caramelize them and bring out their sweetness.
  • Add the vinegar and sugar gradually: This will help to prevent the jelly from becoming too thick or too sweet.
  • Test the jelly for doneness: The jelly is done when it reaches a temperature of 220 degrees Fahrenheit or when it coats the back of a spoon.
  • Let the jelly cool completely: This will help it to thicken and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

Red onion jelly is a delicious and versatile condiment that can be used in a variety of ways. It's perfect for serving with cheese, crackers, or bread. It can also be used as a glaze for ham, chicken, or fish. And it's even good as a dipping sauce for vegetables. No matter how you choose to use it, red onion jelly is sure to please your taste buds.
