Onions. They're the punchline of a classic Simpsons joke, along with a belt and an old man. They're the toppers of sandwiches and burgers, the basis of many a soup and stew, and you can get them "bloom" style at many a chain restaurant. But some real magic happens when you mix onions with red wine and demi and cook them low and slow. And when you put that magic on a juicy steak… true serendipity.
