Caramelizing onions made simpler? Any thoughts on the science behind this method?

Posted by Tonian Irving on January 6, 2012 at 1:05pm 0 Comments

Caramelizing onions is a process that usually takes at least 20 minutes — even up to an hour if you are cooking several pounds at once. So I was intrigued by the method Melissa Clark uses to caramelize onions, which is quite different from the usual approach and takes just 10 minutes. I had to give it a try.

My usual method for caramelizing an onion to to put oil or butter in a hot pan, add the onion and a little salt, and cook away, stirring frequently until the onion is uniformly soft and browned. This usually takes about 20 minutes for one onion.

Cooking: the exhibition chefs

This network is designed to bring the exhibitions team with anyone interested in discussing, collaborating or otherwise participating in the development and design of an exhibition on the subject of cooking.

 

Our goal here is to create a vibrant group of people who can share ideas, offer new directions, test concepts and get reviews as we move forward. We also hope to bring a little laughter and "flavor" to our upcoming work. This is an attempt to open source, as much as we can, the exhibition design and development process.

By and by we assume that if you share ideas on the network we are free to distribute, remix, tweak, and build upon your work, even commercially, as long as we credit you for the original creation. We are thinking this might make the biggest credit panel ever!. On the other hand we are willing to share and have other museums, science centers and nonprofits use our ideas but you must ask for our permission.
