        You could make s better version of this with the same damn ingredients. Do like fried onions au gratin with bechemel or something. It's not great but it's not otherworldly. I will kill anyone who boils an onion.

          Or roast them like brussel sprouts, but no grillman we're boiling them!

          I'm surprised the recipe doesn't call for frozen ones lol

          My family boils whole onions for "puchero", a kind of zero-effort soup.

          They also boil whole onions for bagna cauda. The broth is later used for soup

            do you have a recipe for bagna cauda? don't see any with onions in them on the first page of google search, curious what you are making :9

              Bagna cauda is a simple garlic+anchovies+cream sauce and you dip whatever you like in it, for example cooked or raw onions, baked potatoes, brocoli, cauliflower, carrots, grisines, etc

              The only "secret" I can give you for the sauce is to add grinded walnuts at the end and then some nutmeg.

      My theory is that if you remove the contributions of poc from American cuisine, it'd be seen on the same tier as British "food". The only people propping white American food would be the Italians and Greeks but even they weren't considered white when they arrived.

    What the fuck is half and half?

    It's between cream and milk - usually used for people to put in coffee. IDK why anyone would cook with it.

    "I put a roux on onions and call it a recipe"

    Half-and-half is half whole milk and half heavy cream mixed together. The name of it sounded really synthetic so I never wanted it until I found out what it was, and even then I would just buy whole milk and cream separately.

    Anyone cooking creamed vegetables with half and half does not deserve your funding, vote, or sympathy. Death to America.

    Imagine being however many decades old Tim's mum is, and still not knowing how to cook.

    Half and half is that bullshit "for cooking" diluted cream they are selling these days.

      It's so I can convince myself I'm not packing 10,000 calories into a single dish. Only 7,500 or so.

    Sorry to spam in here, but I'd be okay with a dish brimming with onions, smothered in bechemel and cheese. But this?! this isn't just sad, this is [Great] Depression.

    "Grated cheese" irks me. There are multiple kinds of cheese. Even if we're going by packs of pre-shredded cheese, there are multiple kinds of those, and not even at the grocery stores where Tim Kaine shops, but at the grocery stores where Tim Kaine voters shop, too. Cheddar, mozz, jack, what is it?

      Salt to taste irks me. There are multiple amounts of salt. /s

      You’re right though, imagine adding some Vieux Boulogne or some other type with an immense stink. Cooking it would empty kitchen for sure.

    Yes, Tim Kaine, I do want you to shut the fuck up about creamed onion.
