Notes

Tips and Tricks

Use a Mandoline Slicer: A mandoline slicer can help you achieve uniformly thin slices of onions, which will ensure even caramelization.
Make Ahead: You can caramelize the onions ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator until you're ready to make the dip. This can save time on the day of preparation.
Double the Recipe: If you're hosting a larger gathering, consider doubling the recipe to ensure you have enough dip for everyone. Leftovers can be stored as mentioned above.
