Sprinkle in the sugar, and continue cooking until onions are deep golden brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the chicken broth and vinegar and season with paprika. Mix in the bread until dissolved. Bring to a boil, then simmer over low heat for 3 minutes.
• Transfer the mixture to a blender or food processor, and blend until smooth. Serve with pork or beef.

SOUR CREAM AND ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• Mince and mash 1 garlic clove with 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt into a chunky paste. Whisk the garlic paste, 1/2 cup sour cream, 1/3 cup buttermilk, 1/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 teaspoons vinegar and 2 tablespoons chopped chives in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper.

CARAMELIZED ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• In a saucepan, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add onions. Season with salt and pepper. Saute for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until caramelized. Add the stock and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and using a hand-held blender, puree until smooth. Strain through a sieve and cool completely. Taste, and reseason if necessary.

BREAD & ONION SAUCE

• Heat the butter in a pan, add the onions and bay leaves, then gently fry with the lid on for 10 mins until soft, but not coloured.
• Add milk and cloves, then simmer gently, uncovered, for 30 mins, stirring occasionally.
• Remove bay and cloves, then tip everything into a processor and blitz with two-thirds of the bread until smooth. Chill for up to two days. To serve, tip the cream into a pan, add the sauce, then stir until mixed. Tear in the remaining bread. Add a little milk if necessary to thin the consistency. Season and serve warm.

SWEET ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• Put a pot over medium heat and coat with the 1 tablespoon oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion, thyme, and bay leaf; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook and stir for 5 minutes, or until fragrant, but do not let the onion brown. Pour in the stock and bring to a simmer, then cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook gently for 30 minutes, checking periodically to make sure the liquid has not completely evaporated and the onion is soupy; add a little stock if needed to keep the onion moist.
• Remove the thyme and bay leaf. Transfer the onion to a blender and pulse until slightly chunky. Add the remaining 1/4 cup oil and puree until the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with salt and pepper. The onion sauce can be cooled, covered, and refrigerated for up to 1 day. Reheat gently before serving.

SAUCE SOUBISE (ONION SAUCE)

Steps:

• Cook the onions in 2 T of butter until they are very soft (about 12 minutes). They should not brown. (In France they puree the onions for a more refined sauce.) At this point it's your choice.
• In a saucepan, melt the other 2 T of butter & incorporate the flour, stirring over low heat for 2 minutes.
• Gradually whisk in the milk, blending well after each addition. Cook the sauce over low to medium heat until it thickens & comes just to a boil. Remove from heat & stir in the cooked onions & heavy cream.

BLOOMING ONION AND DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• To make sauce: In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, horseradish, 1/3 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon oregano, a dash ground black pepper and cayenne pepper; mix well. Keep sauce covered in refrigerator until needed.
• To make the batter: In a medium bowl, beat egg and add milk. In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, cayenne pepper, paprika, ground black pepper, oregano, thyme and cumin; mix.
• To slice onion: slice 1 inch off of the top and bottom of the onion and remove the papery skin. Use a thin knife to cut a 1 inch diameter core out of the middle of the onion. Now use a very sharp, large knife to slice the onion several times down the center to create 'petals': First slice through the center of the onion to about three-fourths of the way down. Turn the onion 90 degrees and slice it again in an X across the first slice. Keep slicing the sections in half, very carefully until the onion has been cut 16 times. Do not cut down to the bottom of the onion. (The last 8 slices will be difficult, be careful).
• Spread the 'petals' of the onion apart. To help keep them separate you could plunge the onion into boiling water for 1 minute and then into cold water.
• Dip the onion into the milk mixture and then coat it liberally with the flour mixture. Again separate the petals and sprinkle the dry coating between them. Once you're sure the onion is well-coated, dip it back into the wet mixture and into the dry coating again. This double-dipping ensures you have a well-coated onion because some of the coating will wash off when you fry the onion.
• Heat oil in a deep fryer or deep pot to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Make sure you use enough oil to completely cover the onion when it fries.
• Fry the onion right side up in the oil for 10 minutes or until it turns brown. When the onion has browned, remove it from the oil and let it drain on a rack or paper towels. Open the onion wider from the center so that you can put a small dish of the dipping sauce in the center.
