Onion Prosciutto Tart
- 1 pie shell
- 3 large sweet onions
- 14 cup butter
- 12 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon flour
- 2 tablespoons fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- 14 lb prosciutto, chopped
- 12 cup heavy whipping cream
- slice onions into round disks.
- then slice the disk into 4 equal parts.
- So that you have some small, and some that are longer.
- Melt butter on Medium.
- Add onions, they should not sizzle!
- you need to sweat them to get all of the wonderful sugars going.
- This may take awhile.
- Once the onions have reduced themselves by half, turn the heat up to Medium High, and add salt.
- When the onions look shinny, and start to turn golden.
- Stir in flour, thyme and prosciutto, stir and cook for 5 minutes.
- Pour in 1/4 cup of the whipping cream.
- Stir to coat.
- It should be the consistency of mac and cheese.
- If it is too dry add more cream.
- But remember, if you add too much, your tart will be runny.
- Pour onion mixture into prepared pie shell.
- Bake at 350F for 45 min to an hour.
- Be sure to watch the crust so it doesn't burn.
- the crust should be golden brown, and the top should look caramelized.
