Loading...Rich, sweet caramelized onions are the dominant flavor in this sour cream and cream cheese-based dip. Savory notes from Worcestershire and soy sauce round out and balance the sweetness.
Ingredients
- 2-3 Medium to Large Sweet Onions
- 2-3 tbsp. Unsalted Butter
- Pinch of Kosher Salt, to taste
- Splash of Dry White Wine, to taste (optional)
- 12 oz. Full Fat Sour Cream
- 8 oz. Full Fat Cream Cheese, cubed, softened to room temperature
- Splash of Worcestershire Sauce, to taste
- Splash of Soy Sauce, to taste
- Fresh Parsley, chopped, to taste
Instructions
Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over low heat.
Add onions and let cook over low for heat for up to 1 hour and 30 minutes, stirring every 20 or 30 minutes.
After about 1.5 hours, when the onions have turned golden and there is a bit of liquid in the pan, add a generous pinch of Kosher salt and turn heat up to medium to cook off the liquid. Stir the onions more often to keep them from scorching.
After about 15 minutes, add a splash of white wine and continue cooking the liquid off. Raise the burner to medium-high if necessary to reduce the liquid. Stir the onions more often to keep them from scorching.
In a large bowl, stir together the sour cream and the cream cheese.
Chop the onions and add them to the cheese and sour cream mixture.
Mix well and add a splash of Worcestershire and Soy Sauce to taste.
Add more salt if needed.
