Ok, now I'm a woman OBSESSED! I have made a second batch of oignons confits, and this time, it was a very different version. Whereas the first one was rich and beefy, this one was lighter, much sweeter and tangier. It's also a beautiful ruby-red color! It's made by cooking the onions down in red wine, red wine vinegar, and grenadine (pomegranate syrup). If anyone is interested in trying it, here's the recipe. You can also check out my blog (link below) for a bad, blurry picture of the new confit. --Gina Lindsey's Luscious Sweet-and-Tangy Oignons Confits (Source: adapted from endlessbanquet.blogspot.com) about 2 1/2 pounds onions, peeled and finely minced (I prefer mine finely sliced for more texture) 2 cups grenadine syrup* 2 cups red wine 1 cup red wine vinegar 1/2 cup granulated sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper Cook the minced onions in a non-stick saucepan for about 10 minutes over medium-low heat. Add vinegar and red wine to the onions and reduce over medium-high heat for 5 minutes, stirring from time to time. Lower the heat and add sugar and grenadine syrup*. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir well and simmer over medium heat for about an hour. The mixture will reduce considerably until it thickens and takes on the consistency of a proper confiture (like jam). Remove from heat and allow to cool. Place in jars and refrigerate. Yield will be between 1 1/2 to 2 pints.
