BALSAMIC-GLAZED RED ONIONS
Steps:
- Prepare the onions: Preheat the oven to 400F. Slice off any straggly roots from the onions, leaving the firm root centers intact. Cut the onions in half from tip to root. Peel off the skins until all the papery layers are removed. Cut each half into 4 wedges, slicing through the root so that the wedges stay intact.
- Roast the onions: Cover the baking dish with foil and roast the onions for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue roasting the onions uncovered for 30 minutes more.
- Make the glaze: In a bowl, whisk the balsamic, mustard, salt, and pepper. Gradually whisk in the olive oil.

Steps:
- Prepare outdoor or indoor grill.
- In a very small saucepan heat rosemary and vinegar over low heat until hot, but not boiling. Remove pan from heat and cover. Let stand for 20 minutes so that the vinegar becomes infused with the rosemary.
- In a metal measuring cup heat oil over low heat or microwave until warm. (Heating thins oil, making it easier to brush sparingly over onions.) If you are using an indoor grill, place slices on the grill. For an outdoor grill, use a grilling basket to keep onion slices from falling through. If you don't have a basket, place a soaked bamboo skewer through the rings parallel to the cuts so that they do not tumble through the grill. Brush both sides of each slice lightly with oil. Season onions with salt and pepper and grill 4 to 6 minutes on each side, or until lightly charred and softened.
- Transfer onions as grilled to a large bowl, separating rings, and toss with vinegar mixture, parsley, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve onions warm or at room temperature.

Tips:
- Choose the right onions. Red onions are the best choice for this recipe because they have a mild flavor that won't overpower the vinegar.
- Slice the onions thinly. This will help them cook evenly and caramelize properly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you overcrowd the pan, the onions will steam instead of roast and they won't caramelize properly.
- Roast the onions until they are tender and caramelized. This will take about 20-30 minutes.
- Add the balsamic vinegar and cook for a few more minutes. The vinegar will help to deglaze the pan and add a sweet and tangy flavor to the onions.
- Serve the onions warm or at room temperature. They can be used as a side dish, a topping for salads or sandwiches, or even as a pizza topping.
Conclusion:
Roasted red onions with balsamic vinegar are a delicious and versatile dish that can be used in a variety of ways. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy onions, give this recipe a try!
