Pearl Onions

Ingredients

  • 2 pkgs white pearl onions, approximately 30
  • 4 1/2 cups water brought to a boil, 1 litre
  • sprigs of fresh rosemary
  • bowl of ice water, set aside
  • 3 tbsp salted butter, 45 ml

Instructions

  • Onions can be frozen and ready to use, or you can use fresh and prepare them yourself.
  • If preparing, add the onions to the boiling water and leave for 4 minutes. Drain and shock in ice water. Cutting of the furry end, slip the onions out of their skins.
  • Melt butter in the same pot used to fry the moose cubes and add the onions, gently rolling them around until browned all over – they won’t be uniform. Don’t worry about it.
  • Remove them from the pot and once cooled, store them in a sealed container in the fridge until needed.
