Caramelization Basics
All onions become sweeter with caramelization. We used yellow onions to
test these recipes, although white and red varieties work well, too.
* 1 pound of onions yields about 3 cups vertically sliced onions.
* 3 cups slivered onion yield about 1 cup caramelized onion.
* 8 cups slivered onion yield about 2 1/2 to 3 cups caramelized onion.
* Stir occasionally during the first 5 minutes of caramelization, then more
frequently during the last 15 to 20 minutes. It's important to keep the
onions moving.
* The onions should be a deep golden brown, but not burned, so watch them
closely.
* Onions need lots of space to caramelize, so make sure your pan is large
enough. Use a 12-inch skillet to caramelize 3 cups of onions; use a Dutch
oven to caramelize 4 cups or more.
