How To Make creamed pearl onions
-
Step 1Fill one saucepan with water and bring it to a boil. Add onions and cover. Remove from the heat and let them sit for 5 minutes. Drain the onions, allow to cool and then peel the onions. Set them aside. In another saucepan, melt butter or margarine. Add the flour and whisk in the chicken broth in a steady stream. Continue whisking over medium heat until thickened, add the cream and continue whisking. Add the thyme, salt, pepper and onions. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the onions are tender and the sauce is thick, approximately 45 minutes. When ready to serve, garnish with onions and bacon bits if desired. - Last Step: Don't forget to share! Post a picture of your finished recipe here and on your favorite social network.
