Softening onions (and what 'soft' looks like)Show

Softening cooks the raw sharpness out of onions and turns them sweet. It is the start of most sauces, stews and curries.

  1. Heat the oil over medium heat, add the onion and a pinch of salt (it draws out water and speeds things up).
  2. Stir every minute or so. You want a gentle sizzle, not a loud fry.
  3. After about 5–8 minutes the pieces go glossy, floppy and see-through at the edges. That is 'softened'.
  4. Keep going another few minutes and they start turning golden — sweeter still. Only do that if the recipe says 'golden'.

Ready when: Floppy, shiny and slightly see-through, with no raw crunch when you taste a piece.
