Heard about it on an episode of Sporkfull. ## How I do it. - Heat steel pan (not letting my carbon steel or cast iron get messed up from the acidic onions) to med-high heat - Sliced onions - Add oil - Let oil react cooking temp - Add onions - From until starting to get brown then lower heat - Once quite dark add salt Whole process takes 30-45min. ## Sources - https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdRB3M4J/ Tags Save Loading...
