Caramelized Onion Dip
Ingredients
- ¼ cup Salted Butter
- 3 large Sweet White Onions halved and thinly sliced
- 1 tsp. Fine Sea Salt plus more to taste
- 1 cup Sour Cream
- ½ cup Mayonnaise
- ½ tsp. Onion Powder
- ⅛ tsp. Garlic Powder optional
- Pepper optional, to taste
Instructions
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or pot over medium heat. Once hot, add the butter. Once the butter has melted, swirl to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Add the onions and fine sea salt, turn the heat down to medium-low, and cook for about 30 minutes to 1 hour (or until they have caramelized). Stir them every now and then, and add a Tablespoon or two of water if they ever look like they are drying out. This process takes a little patience. You can cook it on a higher temperature if you’re really pressed for time, but the flavor won’t be as good. If you have the time I highly recommend cooking it low and slow.
- Once the onions are caramelized, remove the pan from the heat, and let them rest for about 15 minutes, or until they’ve cooled slightly.
- To a medium mixing bowl, add the sour cream, mayonnaise, onion powder, garlic powder, and caramelized onions. Mix everything together.
