WOW! Anything with 2 sticks of butter has got to be good! The Silver Palate books are wonderful, after reading this it makes me want to go read mine again!


Love onions, all shapes and forms...:)


Time to pull out the old Silver Palate cookbook - I LOVED their recipes...so flavorful. We are huge onion lovers around here, so I already know these simmered onions with butter and wine are going to be a big hit. Thank you once again!
