BOILED ONIONS
Boiled onions have always been a traditional part of my family's Thanksgiving dinner. I always assumed it was a mainstay holiday side dish for evey family in Amerca, but since I've gotten 'out in the world' see that I was mistaken. SO - I'm posting this recipe because boiled onions are AWESOME and I hope to hear from other New Englanders who agree with me. I don't wait for Thanksgiving but serve them several times a year.

EASY THANKSGIVING BOILED ONIONS
This is a must at my family Thanksgiving feast. I have no idea where my Mom got the recipe, but I suspect it is a New England holdover from the 40's (or earlier!). Sort of bland on their own, these babies really round out the textures and flavors of a holiday meal.

JAMIE OLIVER'S WORLD'S BEST BAKED ONIONS
I found this recipe on The Splendid Table website. What I am posting here is an adaptation of the adaptation I found there of a recipe for Baked Onions from 'Happy Days with the Naked Chef' by Jamie Oliver. Sounds well-worth trying. Baked onions are a great accompaniment to roasts. To significantly reduce the fat content, use a low-fat or reduced fat cream.

Steps:
- Boil the onions in plenty of water for 15 minutes or until slightly tender.
- Remove the onions from the pan and allow to cool.
- With a sharp knife, remove the top inch of each onion, finely chop and place to one side.
- Slightly trim the stalk end of the onions so that the onions will sit flat on a roasting tray.
- Taking care to keep the outside of each onion intact, cut about a heaped tablespoon of onion out from the inside of each onion.
- Finely chop these removed sections of the onion and add to the rest of the chopped onion.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Heat a saute pan and add a little olive oil, the garlic, the chopped onions, and just a little of the chopped rosemary.
- Saute for a couple of minutes until the garlic and onion have softened, then turn the heat down, add the cream and remove the onions and garlic from the heat.
- Stir in the Parmesan and season.
- Wrap a slice of pancetta around the middle of each onion and spike it in place with a sharpened twig of rosemary or a wooden toothpick.
- Place the onions on a roasting tray and spoon some of the chopped onion mixture inside each one.
- Bake in the preheated oven for around 25 minutes until the onions are soft and tender.
- How long this takes is, of course, dependent on the size of the onions. "It's cool to experiment with different cheeses, so give it a bash," says Jamie.
- I presume he is suggesting topping the baked onions with cheese.
- When the onions are cooked right through, remove and serve.
STUFFED ONIONS
Steps:
- Peel the white onions. Using a very sharp knife, slice bottom off each so it will sit straight. Slice off the top and hollow out the center with a spoon, leaving four onion layers intact. Chop the removed inner onion.
- Warm butter in a skillet. Add chopped white onion, leeks and shallots and cook slowly until mixture is soft, about 10 minutes. Add salt and cayenne pepper and continue to cook, stirring often, until onions turn gold, about 20 minutes more. Remove from heat; let cool 10 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Puree onion mixture in a food processor. Drizzle in cream. Stir in bread crumbs and Parmesan. Using a tablespoon, stuff each onion with onion puree. Put in a shallow baking dish, add warmed chicken broth and bake for 1 1/2 hours, basting every half-hour with broth, until soft. Remove from oven and, if serving later, cover with foil. The onions can be reheated, covered, for 7 minutes in a 350-degree oven before serving.

STUFFED ONIONS
These elegant onions are stuffed with beautiful saffron-tinged basmati rice. The fluffy rice is infused with fragrant spices and studded with toasted nuts and dried fruit for a vibrant and textured jeweled look. The onion layers and rice can be prepared a day ahead and kept refrigerated. These festive onions are a great accompaniment to any large protein roast (fish, chicken, steak) and make for a stunning vegetarian main dish. Use any mix of preferred chopped dried fruit; apricots, dates and currants are all nice alternatives.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high. Make a lengthwise cut into each onion from the top to root end, slicing only halfway through to the middle of the onion. (This will make it easier to separate the layers.) Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer briskly until the onions are softened through the middle and the layers separate easily, about 25 minutes. Transfer onions to a cutting board and let cool.
- Meanwhile, heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds on a baking sheet and toast until lightly golden, 6 to 7 minutes; transfer to a plate to cool. Increase oven temperature to 400 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine saffron and lemon juice, and let sit.
- Separate the onion layers until just the centers remain. (You may have to trim the root ends a bit more if the layers don't completely separate.) Cut the 2 largest outer layers from each onion in half for 12 equal pieces, then count out more of the inner layers for a total of 20 to 24 stuffed onions. (The number will vary depending on the size of onions.) Finely chop the remaining onion centers and any remaining onion layers to make 1 cup; a little less or more is OK.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a high-sided, 12-inch ovenproof skillet with a lid over medium. Add chopped onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 3 minutes. Stir in rice and 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, and stir until evenly coated. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt, the pepper, saffron-lemon juice, cinnamon stick, cumin, cardamom and 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil over high, then cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until the liquid is just absorbed, about 3 minutes (rice will still be undercooked). Stir in toasted almonds, pistachios, raisins, cherries and parsley.
- Spoon 2 tablespoons of the rice mixture in the center of each onion layer so that the onion loosely covers the filling. (Rice will expand; bundles should be partly open.) Scrape out and discard any remaining rice (or reserve for future use) and clean out the skillet.
- Coat the bottom of the skillet with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, and arrange onions seam side up in a single layer. Add 1 cup of water to the pan, season onions with salt and pepper, and drizzle with the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Bring to a boil over high, cover tightly and transfer to the oven to bake until all the liquid has been absorbed, rice is cooked through and onions are tender, about 30 to 40 minutes.
- Garnish with parsley and drizzle with oil. Serve warm.
CREAMED ONIONS
This dish is a perfect addition to the traditional holiday turkey dinner. In my family, neither Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner would be complete without serving creamed onions.
