Red Onion Marmalade
Instructions
Preparation
Peel the onions and slice them thinly. Keep them consistent for even cooking.
Ensure your jars are sterilized. You can do this by boiling them in water for 10 minutes.
Cooking Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt.
Stir occasionally and cook for 15 minutes, letting the onions soften and turn translucent.
Sprinkle in the brown sugar. Stir well to coat the onions evenly.
Pour in the red wine and balsamic vinegar. Add the bay leaves.
Simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and becomes jam-like. This takes about 30 minutes.
Remove the bay leaves and check the seasoning. Adjust salt if needed.
Carefully ladle the marmalade into the sterilized jars. Seal tightly while hot.
Let the jars cool completely before storing. Enjoy within 2-3 weeks.
Tips and Variations
Pair this marmalade with cheese, bread, or even grilled meat. It’s versatile and delicious!
