If you’re wondering how to diversify your usual dishes, and boredom has crept into your kitchen that you want to break with a new flavor, you simply must discover this tasty addition.
Red onion confiture will make you rediscover the taste of your dishes. This red onion specialty pairs perfectly with various kinds of meats and cold cuts. It also makes a great addition to salads and various types of cheese. Turn an ordinary breakfast into a sandwich feast, add red onion chutney and give it character. We especially recommend it for preparing a salad with grilled halloumi cheese (or oscypek). It’s also an indispensable companion to pâté and it’s thanks to it that we owe the characteristic taste of a homemade hamburger. You can also add it to casseroles or pizza and discover even more exquisite combinations with it.
Recipe for red onion confiture
Preparation:
Peel the onions and slice them thinly into half-moons. In a pot, heat the butter and oil, add the sliced onions, sprinkle them with a pinch of sugar (which will prevent burning) and sauté until translucent. Ideally, they should already become soft at this stage.
Next, add the remaining sugar, wine, balsamic vinegar, spices, and press in the garlic to the translucent onions. Mix thoroughly. Reduce the heat and simmer for quite a long time, stirring from time to time. The onions must soften completely, the sauce should reduce, and the whole mixture should visibly darken. If the onions are not yet ready and the sauce has reduced completely, add a little water to prevent burning. Once ready, transfer everything to jars. After screwing on the lids, you can additionally pasteurize them to make them last longer.
For this purpose, place them in a pot, pour in water up to the jar’s thread and boil for 15 minutes. After this time, remove the jars and leave them to seal on their own. To make sure they have sealed properly, check whether the lid’s bulge has been pulled in.
