When I saw this month’s tigress can jam choice posted on Small Measure, I thought “what’s an allium?” Then I found out that the allium family consists of green scallions, chives, scapes, ramps, leeks, husky onions, shallots, and garlic.
So onions are alliums! Well, why didn’t you just say so? I like onions so I set out to find the perfect recipe.
I found several recipes for onion marmalades, chutneys and relish. I couldn’t quite wrap my taste buds around the idea of an onion marmalade yet so I skipped over that one. I wasn’t ready to make chutney either so I scratched that one off the list – for now.
Then, I found a recipe for onion relish in The Complete Book of Small-Batch Preserving. The relish sounded pretty good, but I wondered what in the world to eat it with!
Just so happens, the authors provided the perfect solution; use it as a pizza topping. I like pizza so I decided this recipe was the ticket.
Nicely done! We make a similar caramelized onion for our hummus pizza, and it’s delicious! Hope to get my post up tonight for tomorrow morning!
Oh, what a great sounding pizza. I’ll have to make some of those onions. Great sounding recipe.
What a nice idea to use it on pizza!
