Make sure the frozen pearl onions go straight from the freezer into the roasting pan. Adjust the oven rack to the lowest position - closest to the heating element. And don't forget that sprinkling of sugar to help the browning. Ingredients:
2 (16 ounce) bags frozen white pearl onions, left frozen, excess ice removed |
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil |
2 teaspoons sugar |
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste |
1 cup balsamic vinegar |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. Adjust oven rack to low position and heat oven to 425 degrees.
2. Toss onions with oil, sugar, salt and pepper in medium bowl. Transfer to a cookie sheet with rim in a single layer. Roast onions until golden brown, about 30 minutes, stirring at 20 minutes and again at 25 minutes, adding garlic at this point.
3. Meanwhile, bring vinegar to boil; simmer over medium-high heat, about 10 minutes, until reduced to 1/3 cup - it should be a thin syrup. Put onions into a bowl, add reduced vinegar and parsley; toss to coat. Serve hot, warm or at room temperature.
