Tips

  • To make the onions break down more, slice against the grain into half moons. To help them hold their shape more, slice with the grain.
  • Go longer than 15 minutes while caramelizing the onions if you have time.
  • Scrape the bottom of the pan to lift up any brown bits after adding the beef broth.
