Steps:

• Bring a saucepan of water to a boil. Drop in the onions and boil 2 minutes. Drain and cool slightly.
• Use a small, sharp knife to slice off the top of the onions, then slip off the skins. Trim any hairy roots, but leave the stem end intact so that the onions don't separate. If the onions are larger than 1 1/2-inches diameter, slice into halves or quarters.
• Heat the butter and oil in a medium (8-10-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter stops foaming and begins to smell nutty, add the onions to the pan. Cook 5 minutes, or until the onions are browned, stirring occasionally.
• Sprinkle the onions with the sugar and salt. Pour the water and vinegar over them (the pan will sputter). Turn the heat down to medium and cover the pan. Cook 5 minutes.

Return the beef and any juices to the pot and bring the liquids to a boil. Cover the pot and transfer to the oven. Cook until the beef is fork-tender, about 4 hours, turning the beef over halfway through and adding extra broth, as needed, to keep the beef halfway covered in liquid.

Using an immersion blender, blend the vegetables and cooking juices together until smooth. (The vegetables can also be pureed in a blender). Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Keep warm over low heat.

ROASTED CREAMED CIPOLLINI ONIONS

Steps:

• Put onions in a bowl and cover with boiling water After 1 minute, drain off the water. Using a sharp paring knife trim off the root end of the onion, leaving a little of the hard pad intact. It will soften as it cooks and it will keep the onion from slipping apart. Starting at the root end, peel away the outer layer of skin, then trim the tips. You may have to remove several layers of onion. Put the peeled onions in a roasting pan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Toss onions with olive oil, salt and pepper, and roast at 350 degrees for about an hour, until soft and caramelized. Stir gently every 15 minutes to keep them from sticking and to spread the color around. While the onions are roasting, reduce 1/4 cup white wine about in half. Add chicken broth, cream onion, bay leaf and thyme. Simmer and then turn off the heat and let steep for 10-15 minutes. In another slightly larger saucepan, proceed as for basic bechamel. Heat butter and add flour, whisking constantly to allow the flour to cook until the bechamel is a caramel color, about 5-8 minutes. Whisk in a few tablespoons of the steeped liquid from above (after removing onion and herbs) to loosen up the flour mixture, then whisk in the remainder, stirring constantly until thickened. Once the sauce is thickened, whisk in cheddar cheese. Season with salt and grating of nutmeg. Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer the onions into the sauce and stir gently to blend. May be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
