Old Fashioned Creamed Onions
Servings: 8 to 10 Ingrediants: 2 pounds small boiling onions (or whatever small onions you can find) 1/2 cup butter 1/2 cup flour 3 cups light cream 1 1/2 cups water from cooking the onions salt and pepper to taste Directions: Peel the onions, place them in a saucepan and cover with salted water. Simmer until just tender. Drain off liquid into a bowl. Set onions and liquid aside separately. In a medium sauce pan melt the butter. When it foams stir in the flour. Cook gently, stirring, for 2 minutes, then add cream. Cook and stir until thickened. Add 1 1/2 cups of reserved onion liquid. Cook for another few minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add the onions and any optional additions. Serve hot. Note: You can make this ahead and place it in a double boiler or a 350 degrees oven until warm. One of the qualities of a faithful friend is honesty even when the truth is painful. We all need someone who will love us enough not to let us head in a harmful direction, someone who with gentleness and love will help steer us back on the path of righteousness. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
