INSTRUCTIONS

Boil the onions in salted water until they are crisp-tender, 3-7 mins,
depending on the size, drain. Remove and discard the papery outer skins.
Do not cut off much of the root end or the onion will fall apart.
Heat a saute pan, large enough to hold all the onions in one layer, over
medium-high heat. When hot, add the oil. When oil is rippling, add
onions, shaking pan until all are well-coated with oil. Add one tabsp plus
one teasp of the vinegar. Continue to saute, shaking pan occasionally,
until the onions are golden brown, 6-8 mins.
When they are golden, sprinkle in the remaining two teasp balsamic vinegar;
season with the fresh ground pepper to taste. Shake the pan briefly to
distribute the vinegar. Taste for seasoning and add a dash more vinegar if
desired, but there should be just a hint of it.
