>Step 2: Caramelize the onions (15 mins)
>>
>>20436863
you can do it in 15 minutes doebeit
just chop 'em very small
>>
>>20436863
do other stuff during the 15 min
>>
>>20436896
Caramelizing onions takes an hour of constant stirring
All the recipes are lying
>>
>>20436909
bullshit
>>
>>20436867
Nah
>>20436896
They won't be ready
>>20436909
It takes at least an hour, but you only have to stir once every 10 minutes after the first 10 minutes of continuous stirring
>>
>>20436915
no that's generally correct
>>
>>20436863
i microwave my raw onions first, fuck em

>>20436863
>cook until translucent
>veg refuses to transluce
Clever confuse-a-janny pic btw.

puree an onion and then see how long it takes for it to turn into onion syrup. not very long. caramelization is all about surface area that's in contact with the heat source (and moisture loss). smaller chunks caramelize faster.
>>
>>20437048
then it could easily take 15 minutes
>>
>>20436867
And use wine. If you keep them at high heat, stir constantly and deglaze with wine every so often, you will get fully caramelised onions in about 20 minutes.
Some people consider that cheating, tho.
>>
>>20437083
>adding a shitton of additional sugars
>some consider it cheating
Yeah, that's why
>>
>>20437100
I know! But it works and if you're from where I'm from, you're probably going to add wine to whatever things the onions will be used in, anyway.
>>
>>20436863
Don't rush it. Simmer them in butter until they have a rich brown colour.
>>20436925
Just use proper technique. It will be done before you know it.

Burn them a little, deglaze, reduce.

While that's obviously a recolour, some light-furred animals can actually be born dyed green due to the presence of biliverdin in the mother. Like lady's hair dye, the smaragdine hue wears off with time and an animal born green will eventually become the pale shade of blonde or white typical of their species or breed.

youre lying to me

Happens all the time, even in people, though other factors tend to be at okay for us to develop green hair. Sometimes, blondes and the elderly will start to develop green hair, though that's usually through water contaminated with copper, like what happened in southern Sweden in 2011.
There was also that green cat in Denmark in the 90s

>>20436909
Caramelizing is a vague term that can refer to anything from slightly browning the edges to completely roasting them into sludge. This is where your confusion comes from.

Slicing sounds alongside the dull host's commentary would have made for awful radio.

You can just buy them at Coop and Migros so i would guess that supermarkets in other countries also sell jarred caramelised onion.
