How to Caramelize Onions in a Pressure Cooker Small

Caramelized onions in a short amount of time with no babysitting.
I used 5 large onions with 6 TBSP of butter, 1/2 tsp of baking soda and salt and pepper.

Thanks for this recipe and tips

I would love to see a second try without baking soda and 5-7 minutes. I think there could with be a splash of water and cherryvinager too. :)

Please release pressure with a towel or any other way make it safe. I think 5 min. Pressure Will do.

Can I do a smaller batch without so many onions?

[@kitchenistas1327]

Yes you can! If I have extra they freeze well and are a great addition to so many dishes.

[@mytwocents848]

I didn't think of freezing it. Thanks so much. I do almost everything in my multipot these days. I love it. 🥰

Do the onions release enough liquid for the pressure cooker to work properly? My instructions on my Mealthy Multipot says it needs at least a cup of liquid to pressure cook. Also, would it work to use 3 T of butter and 3 of olive oil?

@@mytwocents848 That should work!

[@mytwocents848]

I tried it without the extra water and I'm glad I did. They produced quite a lot of liquid and they came out perfectly. Merry Xmas and thanks a bunch. 🎄

forget the baking soda, we're already using the pressure cooker for quickness

Those onions were mush. Took it too far.

Twenty minutes!!!! Holy cow!!! No nutrients left in those onions...look too soggy. Ever try a lot less time??

[@analogdistortion]
