This creamed onions recipe was my great-grandma's. Always a favorite at Thanksgiving dinner. I think it's worth using fresh pearl onions instead of frozen ones.
Ingredients
- 0.75 cups water
- salt to taste
- 2 cups peeled pearl onions
- 0.25 cups butter
- 1.5 cups cold whole milk
- 0.25 cups quick-mixing flour , such as Wondra

Bring water and salt to a boil in a small saucepan; add pearl onions and cook until just tender, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain, reserving 1/2 cup water in the saucepan; return onions to the pan and add butter.

Mix milk and quick-mixing flour together in a bowl; add to onion mixture. Cook and stir over medium-low heat until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in more quick-mixing flour if the mixture is too thin.
