French Onion Bites

Ingredients for French Onion Bites

• 36 thin (1/4-inch) slices of baguette (from 1 baguette)

• 1 cucchiaio di burro non salato

• 1 cucchiaio di olio d'oliva

• 2 large onions, chopped (about 600g )

• 1 garlic clove, lightly crushed

• 1 small bay leaf

• 1 sprig fresh thyme

• 60ml white wine

• 350ml finely shredded Gruyere (using a microplane, about 90g )

Preheat oven to 191°C with rack in middle.

Arrange slices on a large baking sheet and bake in oven until golden, about 8 minutes. Let cool.

Meanwhile, heat butter and oil in a 10-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until butter is melted, then cook onion, garlic, bay leaf, and thyme with 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoons pepper, covered, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.

Uncover skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden, about 10 to 15 minutes more. Add wine and cook until entirely evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Discard garlic clove, bay leaf, and thyme. Transfer to a small bowl and keep warm, covered.

Preheat grill.

Arrange toasts on a large baking sheet, then top each with a rounded teaspoon of caramelized onions and sprinkle generously with shredded Gruyere. Grill 3- to 4-inches from heat until cheese is melted, 1 to 2 minutes (watch carefully).
