Alton Browns Onion Dip Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the green onions, red onion, Vidalia onion, white onion and brown sugar and saute for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the vinegar and Worcestershire and continue cooking until the onions are very soft and a caramel color, another 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the cream cheese until it is melted into the onions. Remove the mixture to a large bowl, then stir in the sour cream, mayonnaise and chives. Transfer to an 8-inch square baking dish and top with the Parmesan. Bake until golden and bubbling, 15 to 20 minutes. Serve with crostini or crudites.

Steps:

• In a saute pan over medium heat add oil, heat and add onions and salt. Cook the onions until they are caramelized, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool. Mix the rest of the ingredients, and then add the cooled onions. Refrigerate and stir again before serving.

Steps:

• Cut the onions in half and then slice them into 1/8-inch thick half-rounds. (You will have about 3 cups of onions.) Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions, cayenne, salt, and pepper and saute for 10 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 more minutes until the onions are browned and caramelized. Allow the onions to cool.
• Place the cream cheese, sour cream and mayonnaise in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat until smooth. Add the onions and mix well. Taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
