    2.10.19 You’re basically making a white sauce (bechamel) to go over the onions. I’d recommend melting your butter, then add the flour, and whisk and cook over medium heat for about 2 minutes, eliminating the raw flour taste. Next, add your milk, salt and pepper, and stir until smooth and thickened. I scaled this down - Read more ...

    There were way too many cracker crumbs and the onions were undercooked. If I were to make this recipe again I would increase the cooking time and omit the crackers. One good thing is that the sauce was a nice compliment to the flavor of the onions. Thanks anyway.

    I tried other creamed onion recipes on this site. This one is the best. Others used heavy cream but did not thicken as much I like. I used another persons advice and added a dash of hot pepper sauce. Great recipe!! Thanks
