Remarks
Once cooked, the onions will need quite a generous amount of salt as the process tends to make them rather sweet.
You can balance this sweetness, which can be a bit excessive at times, by pouring half a glass of dry white wine or 3 tablespoonsful of vinegar into the pan 5 minutes before the end of cooking.
