Onion Marmalade



What???

Onion Marmalade!!!

Yes - it's one of the yummy toppings I ordered recently at a fantastic hamburger place called The Counter. We recreated our own gourmet toppings The Counter experience recently for a family gathering. I just had to have their onion marmalade.

I searched online, combined a few recipes and came up with this:

3 sliced onions
1/3 cup red wine
1/3 cup red wine vinegar (I had to substitute white)
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup honey

Combine and simmer for 30 minutes until liquid is absorbed.

I also made a herbed goat cheese topping by putting soft goat cheese, fresh chives and basil, plus garlic in the good processor.

(sorry - the picture above was borrowed temporarily. I forgot to take one. I'll change it next time I make this yummy recipe)
