Onion Confit

this recipe is really a collaboration of some of the finest of eGullet, including fifi and woodburner. I am indebted to both of them. For without them, I should never have known the joys of confit!

• 1/4 c butter
  
• 1/4 c EVOO
  
• 1 T demi glace
  
• 3 T sherry and or port
  
• 1 T brown sugar
  
• 7 large onions sliced, enough to fill crock pot
  
• optional, thyme, bay leaf
  

Throw everything in the crockpot and stir it up. Put crock pot on high till you go to bed. Stir before going to bed.

Turn crock pot down to low for overnight. Turn crock pot back up to high for another couple of hours when you wake up. Time about 18 hours all told.

Note: Onions may vary as to water content. The onions used in this recipe are regular cooking onions.
