" I enjoy a baked onion and this is a very easy recipe to make. I don't like things too sweet so I don't use too much honey use more if you have a sweet tooth. Also I like to still have some crunch in my onion so if you like well done cook for an additional 15 minutes. Watch that the balsamic/honey doesn't burn. Prep time does not include the 1 hour resting time. This recipe is great served with a roast."
