Onion Butter

Ingredients

• 10 cups chopped onion
• Pinch of sea salt
• Dark sesame oil
• Water

Instructions

1. Heat a small amount of dark sesame oil in a heavy pot.
2. Sauté onion for several minutes over medium/low flame until they become translucent. Stir often to sauté evenly.
3. Add a pinch of salt and just enough water to cover the top of the onions.
4. Cover the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to low and simmer for several hours until the onions become dark brown and very sweet. There shouldn't be any liquid left and the onions should be almost melted. If necessary, add very small amounts of water occasionally during the cooking process to keep onions from burning.
5. When onion butter is ready, allow it to cool.
6. Store in a jar in the refrigerator.

Notes

Use on bread, crackers, rice cakes.
