  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     1/2           cup  unsalted butter
  6              large  sweet yellow onions -- such as Vidalia, coarsely chopped
  1                cup  firmly packed brown sugar
  1 1/2           cups  balsamic vinegar
     1/2           cup  finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

Divide the butter between two large skillets and melt it over medium-high
heat. Add half the onions to each skillet and saute for 3 to 4 minutes to
soften them. (Or saute the onions in one pan in batches.) Transfer the
onions to the insert of a 4 to 6-quart slow cooker, stir in the brown
sugar and vinegar, and toss to coat. Cover the slow cooker and cook on
High for 4 hours, or on low for 8 hours. The onions should be softened,
and the sauce should be thickened.

Cool the onions and sauce to room temperature; the sauce will thicken as
it cools. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 months.

Makes about 5 cups (20 one-quarter cup servings)

AuthorNote: These sweet and tart onions are a wonderful 'condimento' to
serve with bruschetta, or with grilled [favorites]. The slow cooker cooks
down the onions until they almost melt into the sweet and tart sauce. I
love to serve these with a soft chevre on toasted baguettes.
