whose voting for this? i was shocked when i tried the recipe - shocked badly. but i love onions though.
it is a fine meal .
I will make one more comment - this was written after a binge and there were mistakes and I was unsure how to edit the recipe. The 2 onions was suppose to be 1/2 onion and the reality is I would have drunk all the chardonnay and been left with either a red (merlot) or what might have not been drunk - a white light cooking wine.
I agree, but I wondered why the number kept going up and I wasn't the one! I was actually not even voting for a while and was surprised when it kept going up into the top list!!!!!!!!!!
I am thinking there is voter fraud, I bet there is not even 4000 chow hounders out there. Someone please fix the multiple voting error.
