Ingredients
16 servings
- •2 tablespoons olive oil
- •3 cups diced yellow onions
- •1 clove garlic, minced
- •0.5 cup water, or more if needed
- •1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- •1 tablespoon beef base (such as Better than Bouillon®)
- •1 teaspoon onion powder
- •0.5 teaspoon dried thyme
- •1 teaspoon white sugar
- •salt and ground black pepper to taste
- •1 pint sour cream
Instructions
- Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add 1/2 cup water, Worcestershire, beef base, onion powder, and thyme. Increase heat and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until beef base is dissolved.
- Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, 30 to 45 minutes. Liquid will slowly evaporate and onions will caramelize. If onions start to stick to the pan, throw in a splash of water and scrape up the delicious bits. Taste before adding sugar, salt, and pepper. Once seasoned to your liking, remove from the heat and let cool to room temperature, 15 to 20 minutes.
- Mix cooled onions with sour cream until well combined. Chill for 1 hour before serving.
