How to Prepare Creamed Pearl Onions [Vegan]
- If your pearled onions are pre-peeled, boil a pot of water, slice off the very ends of each onions, blanch in the boiling water for 40 seconds, then transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. The peels should come off very easily.
- In a large pan, on medium heat, heat your oil, or vegan butter. Add in your onions and let cook until they have browned a bit.
- Pour in vegetable broth, sour cream, and add your fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
- Simmer on low until the cream sauce has thickened up.
- Garnish with fresh parsley. Serve.
