Step-by-Step Instructions
To start, I heat the olive oil in my trusty Dutch oven over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, I add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. The key here is to caramelize those onions slowly. I typically let them cook for about 20-25 minutes until they are a lovely golden brown, stirring occasionally. The smell that fills my kitchen is absolutely divine!
