About Onions, yellow, sauteed
Sauteed yellow onions are transformed by heat and fat into something sweeter and far more complex than their raw starting point. Cooked in oil until soft and golden, most of the water cooks off and the natural sugars caramelize at the edges. The fat content reflects the cooking oil absorbed during the process. Use them as a base for pan sauces, fold into egg dishes, pile onto burgers, or layer into flatbreads. Nutritionally modest on their own but an outsized contributor to flavor in almost any savory recipe.
