How to make
Delicious Creamed Onions
  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and salt it. Cut the onions crosswise into thick slices; there’s no need to separate them into rings. Plunge the onions into the boiling water and cook for about a minute; drain well.
  • Put the cream and butter in a deep skillet or broad saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and bring to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have absorbed a lot of the cream and the sauce is thick. Add a tiny bit of nutmeg if you like and sprinkle with pepper.
  • Taste, adjust the seasoning, and serve hot.
    Creamed Spinach.
  • Instead of the onions, use 11/2 pounds trimmed spinach. In Step 1, after draining the spinach, cool it a bit or shock (see page 240), then chop it roughly. Proceed with the recipe.
