A recipe from either Gourmet or Bon Appetit circa 1990. The original recipe called for a pinch of sugar per onion, but I never had sugar in the house so have always made them without.
Ingredients:
4 large yellow onions
4 teaspoons butter
thyme (to taste)
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)
Directions:
1. Pre-heat oven to 400°F.
2. Peel onions.
3. Place onions on surface root end down. Cut halfway through each onion toward root end into half-inch segments (halfway - keep onion intact).
4. Place each onion on a 12 square of foil.
5. Dot each onion with 1 tsp of butter.
6. Sprinkle each onion with thyme, salt and pepper to taste.
7. Crumple foil over each onion, leaving a small opening at the top to vent.
8. Place the four packets on a baking sheet.
9. Bake 40-45 minutes until soft.
10. Carefully open packets and serve.
