Ingredients

• 1 teaspoons olive oil
• 4 medium (about 2 lbs) yellow onions
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 0.5 teaspoons dry mustard powder
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 cups water

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions into even half-moons. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large non-stick skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the sliced onions to the skillet and stir well to coat them evenly in the oil.

Step 4

Cook the onions, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until they become soft and translucent. Reduce the heat to medium-low if the onions begin to brown too quickly.

Step 5

Add the balsamic vinegar, apple cider vinegar, honey, brown sugar, dry mustard powder, salt, black pepper, and water to the skillet.

Step 6

Stir the mixture thoroughly to combine all ingredients with the onions.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has thickened and the onions have caramelized into a jam-like consistency.

Step 8

Taste and adjust for sweetness or tanginess by adding a little extra honey or vinegar if desired.

Step 9

Remove from heat and let the jam cool slightly before transferring it to a clean, airtight jar or container.

Step 10

Store in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. Serve warm or cold as a condiment, spread, or topping.
