I have always heard about onions so sweet you can eat
them like an apple. I have had Vidalia onions before and never found that to be
true. I just thought it was one of those myths, wives tales, etcetera. Two weekends ago, at the farmers market, Ruth
from Whitaker Farm proved me wrong.
This week when I bought
more Ruth told me her recipe for baked onions and had my mouth watering. Ruth
said cook these in foil at 500°, after cooking place a dab of butter on top and
eat the onion as if you would a baked potato.
Holy Moly! These onions are
fantastic!
4 large Vidalia onions
1/4 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup shredded (fresh) Parmesan cheese
(optional)
Preheat to 500°F
Cut the top off the onions
and skin
Score the onions, place
a pat of butter on top then wrap in aluminum foil
Cook for 45 minutes to
an hour depending on the size of the onion
Remove from foil, season
with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with cheese if you choose to use it
