@33anthonyd Ok heres a thought, instead of being an asshole and bashing others videos how about you go and make your own video detailing the proper method and post it as a response.
There are lots of people who enjoy cooking. I myself like fast food. Easy. Done Deal and quick. Clean. No need to wash dishes. No need to clean up. No need to smell the house.
what kind of oil?
I said it takes hours to make good caramelized onions. Can you make browned onions it in less time? Yes, but they suck. If you think otherwise, you are a home cook who doesn’t know better or a hack. I do work at a restaurant. And here is what we do: cook a bus tub of sliced onions for at least four hours over a low heat in butter. Our expert onion cooker (AKA our dishwasher) comes over and stirs them periodically. And yes, we had to give him a raise when he became an “onion specialist.”
thank you chef cheri oteri
im gonna slow caramalize her bum hole! yes lord!! lol
I want to carmalize you
wow shes hot…
@33anthonyd Who has “hours” to caramelize onions?…you, sir, are ridiculous.
Maybe a hundred onions would take “hours”…restaurants would go broke paying some “onion specialist” to do it. =)
@33anthonyd I wouldn’t say hours, that is an over exaggeration. You can make them in about 45minutes. I use some butter, salt sugar, but it really depends how you want to do them. You cold add balsamic vinegar, thyme e.t.c If you are cooking them for hours then they will end up turning them into a slimy mess.
Long slow cooking is crucial to get the rich complex sweetness of caramelized onions. In a pinch though, I have found the quick method works if you add turbinado sugar syrup. I am a pro. cook for many years and when you need shortcuts to get somewhere, you compromise.Saute on’s letting them brown on med heat for a minute, then low (put in a 350 oven for maybe ten min.). After that, saute high heat and deglaze with H2O, then coat with syrup, reduce. It works when ya suddenly run out of them!!
@mgasinungalingkayo typical idiot mcdonalds fryer.
Best Caramelized onion you can get is from the bottom of a cast iron sizzle pan with ya chicken tikka or tandoori chicken or mixed grill you get from ya local pub Awesome.! lol dont care how long thay tek well nice lol,,,
this is another stupid video who said 20-30 minutes to caramelize an onion. nobody wants to cook an onion that long unless you dont have al ife .
Well, I wouldn’t want that! I’ve never actually used a pressure cooker before, so I’m not at all familiar with them. But thanks for the heads up anyhow!
that’ll boil the hell out of them and make them stick all around the pressure cooker pot … nope, not a cool idea
There’s probably some kind of trick using a pressure cooker or something like that!
@DeepestSleep
Yes, sadly I can’t be bothered most of the time while I really like the incredible flavor of caramelized onions. There must be another way?
Yeah, that’s how I’ve learned to make them, through trial and error. That’s actually why I’m here on this page, I was looking to see if there is a faster way to do them, because mine take so long!
@Metsada007 I second this comment. I liek to spend all day carmelizing my onions…and I do a ton of them at a time…cause it is so much work. But the more time your spend making them the better they taste. Oh so good. Also, you can turn up the heat at first when they still have a lot of water content, but stir often.
It takes about 90 minutes to make real caramelized onions and it’s hard work. You certainly DON’T use a non-stick pan, you keep scraping the bottom of the pan just before it burns to get that deep flavor.
20-30 minutes is the way to go.
Medium high heat…splash of canola oil, tsp of butter, cook for about five to ten minutes. Onion will become golded brown and tranparent…in other words beautiful, cooked through, and fucking tasty!
Many of the recipes I have come across for carmelized onions say to cook them slowly in the low-med heat (10-15 min) and then add brown sugar, sometimes vinegar or possibly a cooking wine and then continue to cook until all melted and browned with sauce being somewhat thick. Thoughts?
that wiil just be sauted onions for carmilized onions it about slow cooking them on low heat to bring out the flavours alot more try it and ull taste the diffrence
