I'm sort of bedridden right now, but I'm hoping that won't affect my cooking and posting too much. Before this started yesterday, I was watching The Rachael Ray Show as I am wont to do at 9am. She was making French Onion Mac 'n' Cheese, and for some reason that just sounded like the best thing in the world.
I hemmed and hawed at Fresh Market because I couldn't decide whether I really wanted to make it, but it was the only thing that spoke to me. Such is life.
I definitely didn't realize how long this would actually take me. I suspect my onions were twice the size of Rachael's because the slicing and caramelizing were the parts that took the longest. It's also when my back started to go Benedict Arnold on me. Wear supportive shoes if you have massive onions. That's not a euphemism. Or maybe her stove is a lot more effective than mine. Anyway, it's worth the time if you have it, but definitely start it earlier than 7pm if you want to eat at a decent hour.
