I am a firm believer in the idea that with good caramelization you can extract incredible flavor from very simple ingredients. I believe that this recipe illustrates that point perfectly.

Ingredients

  • 57 grams (4 tablespoons) unsalted butter
  • 680 grams (

Method

Prepare your mise en place.

Place the butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until it reaches the nut brown (noisette) stage. Add the fennel and onion and cook, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, for about 10 minutes or until the vegetables are golden and caramelized. Do not let them get too dark.
