Creamed Pearl Onions Recipe ~ Noreen's Kitchen

Serious Eats / J. Kenji López-Alt

Pearl onions don’t have quite the sweetness of their larger counterparts or even the candy-sweet cipollini or shallots but they do have a similar bite. What does this mean for cooking them? It means that the best pearl onion recipes are ones that tame the bite while still bringing out the onion’s natural flavor without offering a ton of sweetness.

To me that means one of two methods: glazed or creamed. Both methods start the same: by peeling silver onions.
