FRENCH CANADIAN ONION CONFIT
If you love the smell of onions cooking long and slow until they are sweet and almost burnt, then this recipe should be in your collection. The onions are first fried in butter, then simmered in red wine and a bit of grenadine. The result looks like nothing but tastes like heaven. This unusual condiment is based on a recipe from Au Tournant de la Riviere, one of Canada's best restaurants. Serve it with braised leeks pate or roast meats.

Steps:
- In a large frying pan, melt the butter and cook the onions very slowly, until they begin to brown. This should take about 30 minutes.
- Press the browned onions to remove the excess butter and drain the pan of the surplus butter.
- Add the remaining ingredients. Cook slowly, uncovered, over low heat for 1 to 1 1/2 hours, until the onions are very dark or almost black. Stir occasionally to prevent the onions from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- Serve slightly warm or at room temperature. Makes 1 cup to serve 4 to 6 as a condiment.
- Across the Table.

CROCK POT ONION CONFIT
I've found that a crock pot is the perfect vehicle for creating the perfect onion confit. Don't use fresh, sweet onions for this, due to the lengthy cooking time. Please realize that this recipe is only a basic framework; your mileage may vary, so adjust accordingly! Length of crock pot cooking time is roughly 18 hours. Don't take them out until they are very dark and reduced, almost gelatinous in texture. Onion confit is fantastic on pizzas, as a sandwich spread, as an appetizer with thinly-sliced baguettes, etc. It makes a killer, quickie-base for French onion soup, too.

Steps:
- If you don't have demi-glace, take 2 cups good-quality stock and reduce to 1/2 cup.
- Place everything in crock pot and thoroughly combine.
- Turn to high, until just before going to bed (about eight hours).
- Stir.
- Turn to low for overnight.
- Upon waking, stir, and turn back to high until finished.
- Water content will vary from onion to onion, so if your confit is still quite watery towards the end, remove lid and allow excess water to cook off.
- This will keep for at least two weeks, covered, in the refrigerator.

CONFIT D' OIGNON - FRENCH ONION MARMALADE
I always have at least several jars of Confit d'Oignon in my pantry; it is excellent with so many different types of dishes & recipes. Serve it with charcuterie, terrines & cheeses; it is wonderful added to vegetables, soups, stews, daubes or as a sauce for steaks. I also use it for tarts, quiches & grilled cheese sandwiches. It is well worth making a few jars - it is expensive to buy, even in France; make up several jars when onions are cheap or you have a glut in your garden. You can make it with red or yellow onions, red onions gives the finished confit a fantastic colour! This what I use when I make my Recipe #205353.

Steps:
- In a heavy frying pan, heat up the olive oil and add the finely sliced onions - toss around to make sure they all have a coating of oil.
- Cover & cook over a gentle heat until they start to colour.
- Add the salt, pepper, bay leaves & rosemary sprigs & cook for a further 20 to 30 minutes, until the herbs have wilted.
- Take off the lid and add the sugar, wine & vinegars.
- Bring them to the boil and keep stirring al the time; then lower the heat & simmer for about 20 to 30 minutes until the liquid is all dissolved and the onions are soft & sticky.
- You will need to be very vigilant towards the end of the cooking - stirring all the time so the onions do not stick and become burnt and scorched.
- Pick out the rosemary & bay leaves and spoon the confit into a clean, dry & sterilised jar & seal straight away.
- Ready to eat after 2 weeks, but better if kept for at least 1-2 months.
- Makes one x 300ml jar - the recipe can easily be increased - use a large preserving pan if necessary.
