Creamy Onions Recipe

We grew a large quantity of onions on the farm where I was raised. Since they seemed to go with everything, we enjoyed them often in many different ways. Besides, back in the good old days, Mom said onions kept us from getting colds in the winter!

Ingredients

24 boiling onions, peeled

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

Dash ground cloves

1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

Directions

In a large saucepan, cook onions in boiling salted water until tender. Drain; set aside. In the same saucepan, melt butter. Blend in flour and salt until smooth. Add milk all at once; cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and bubbly. Cook and stir 1 minute more. Stir in the cloves and parsley. Add onions; stir gently until heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
