Steps:
- Melt the butter in a cast iron skillet over a medium flame until it begins to foam, toss the sliced onions into the hot fat and fry them, stirring frequently, until they release their fragrance and become tender and translucent.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- While the oven preheats, reduce the heat to medium-low, pour two cups cream into the skillet over the onions and simmer them together until cream thickens and is reduced by half, about fifteen minutes.
- In a separate bowl, stir two cups whole grain sourdough bread crumbs with two tablespoons minced fresh thyme and one-quarter cup minced Italian flat-leaf parsley. Season the mixture of breadcrumbs and herbs with unrefined sea salt as it suits you.
- Remove the onions and cream from the heat. Top them with seasoned breadcrumbs and one-half cup grated pecorino romano cheese.
- Place the onion gratin in an oven preheated to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for twenty to twenty-five minutes or until the season breadcrumbs and cheese form a nice golden crust and the cream begins to bubble.
- All the onion gratin to rest for about five minutes before serving.

Stir in about half of the spring onion greens.

CREAMED ONION GRATIN
This Creamed Onion Gratin is one of those timeless recipes that will always have a place at the Southern holiday table. If you've planned ahead, you already stored your surplus of spring Vidalia's to enjoy throughout the year. If not, any sweet onion will do. First, the onions are slowly caramelized to bring out (even more of) their ultra sweet flavor, and laced with sherry to add another dimension of taste. The tender onions are then tossed in a rich and creamy cheese sauce and topped with buttery panko crumbs. The results are baked into a bubbling golden brown casserole so good you'll want to eat it straight from the pan with a spoon.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a gratin dish or medium casserole.
- Cut off the root and tip of the onions. Slice in half length-wise and peel. Lay the cut-side of the onion down and slice length-wise into thick wedges.
- In a Dutch oven or heavy pot, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 40 minutes. Add the sherry and simmer until it evaporates. Remove the onions from the pan and pour through a fine mesh sieve. Let them drain while making the bechamel sauce. (Draining the onions prevents a runny gratin because the onions will continue to release more liquid in the oven.)
- In the same Dutch oven, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for one minute. Add the scalded milk and cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce is very thick. Remove from the heat. Fold in the Gruyere and stir until completely melted. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the onions to the cheese sauce and toss to thoroughly coat. Pour the onion mixture into the gratin dish.
- Melt the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss with the panko crumbs. Sprinkle over the top of the onions and bake until bubbly and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Serve warm.

GRATIN OF ONIONS
Steps:
- In a large saucepan mix together the onions, stock, grits, salt and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to low, and cook gently for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring the mixture two or three times to prevent it from sticking to the pan, until the onions and grits are very tender.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a 6-cup gratin dish with about 1/4 teaspoon of the butter and add the remainder of the butter to the onion mixture. Using a hand blender or a food processor, puree the onion-and-grits mixture until it is smooth, and then pour it into the prepared dish. Sprinkle with the cheese.
- Place the gratin in the oven for about 15 minutes if the mixture is still warm when it goes into the oven, or about 30 minutes if the mixture has cooled. If the top needs additional browning, place the gratin under a hot broiler for a few minutes before serving.

CREAMY AU GRATIN POTATOES
This is my husband's favorite dish, and he considers it a special occasion every time I make it. The creamy cheese sauce and the tender potatoes in this classic French dish combine to make a deliciously addictive experience. It's a great side dish with a roast pork loin or beef tenderloin. Add a green salad and French bread, and you have found the magic path to a man's heart. To avoid lumps in your sauce, add the milk just a little at a time as you stir the flour and butter. Experiment with different cheeses for variety.

Steps:
- In a skillet cook the mushrooms in 2 1/2 tablespoons of the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until they are softened and most of the liquid they give off has evaporated. Stir in the flour and cook the mixture, stirring, for 3 minutes.
- In each of six 1 1/2-cup gratin dishes layer the onions, the remaining butter, cut into bits, the mushroom mixture, and salt and pepper to taste, beginning and ending with a layer of onions, and pour 1 tablespoon of the cream over the top of each gratin. In a small bowl combine well the Gruyère and the bread crumbs and sprinkle the mixture over the cream. (Alternatively, the gratin, layered in the same manner, may be prepared in one 2-quart gratin dish.) Bake the gratins in the middle of a preheated 325°F. oven for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until the onions are tender and the tops are golden. The gratins may be prepared 3 hours in advance, kept covered and chilled, and reheated in a preheated 400°F. oven for 5 minutes, or until they are heated through.
