French onion soup!

OK, that only seemed like 10 lbs of onion because it was when I discovered I didn't have any tolerance to fumes anymore.

Vidalias are fantastic in risotto. I'd use a couple of Vidalias, fresh peas, and real Parmesan in your basic chicken broth risotto. (Maybe with some fresh parsley, salt, and pepper.)

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I've had some yummy onion tart. I got the recipe off of MarthaStewart.com, but I don't remember which one it was.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

They're so sweet, I would saute them an add to every sandwich and sauce. Also, steam them with other veggies and have with honey mustard or a drizzled with a vinagrette.

I'm going to use Alton Brown's onion storage suggestion of old pantyhouse, with a knot between each onion so all you have to do is hang it in a closet, cut it off at below the knot, and start peeling and slicing.

Punishingly Intricate

I love vidalias sauteed with spinach for use in either a pasta dish or a burrito (with beans and cheese and brown rice and avocado and salsa okay now I'm hungry and dinner isn't until LATE o'clock).

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

French onion soup. You want sweet onions for that so that they'll carmelize a bit before you put them in the soup.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

For an onion tart, all you need is some sort of crust (pie, puff pastry, whatever), onions (caramelized), and whatever spices/herbs you like (I like sage). Caramelize the onions with plenty of salt and pepper, mix in your spices, dump it in the middle of your rolled-out crust, and fold the edges over in a rustic foldy manner. Bake at 350-400 for about 20 minutes, or until everything is golden brown and delicious.
